For anyone who hasn't heard, Barry lost Mary yesterday morning.

The herf is still on. Barry said Mary would have wanted it that way.

Linda is my wife's best friend and somehow they got the two of us together. This is the kind of thing that Mary would have laughed long and hard about. It makes it just that much more precious to me.

Well, We had a great turn out and brought in over 2,500. for Barry. I need to thank you all for your support and help everyone offered here. I have so many people to thank. :thumbsup:

[Black Dog]

Awesome! Sounds like a great time and definitely a good cause. I tried to catch the webcast but it was off by the time I got home.

[Wasch_24]

Totally awesome!

[Eric]

I had a most wonderful time. The turnout was awesome! Got a bottle of HC Rum Anejo Reserva in the auction :smile:

In addition to the money raised at the HERF, I presented Barry with $250 from tshirts sales and S&H's auction win. I told him we had another auction on the way as well :thumbsup:

[scarecrow]

Simply AWESOME people. Mary was so looking forward to this event, as she did most of the cigar related events. I still find it so hard to believe that she didn't live long enough to get to attend. Her spirit shines brightly in ya'lls generosity and I thank you deep from the bottom of my heart.
