I was very saddened to hear of Mrs. Hain's death. She will be missed by so many.

Kudos to you guys for putting together a memorial shoot so quickly.

Super turnout - way to go!:celebrate
You guys really have really jump started the fund.

Appreciate the pictures too. They're the next best thing to actually being there.
Some interesting toys in evidence too. Not even going to ask about the placement of fingers/Jim's name tag. :)

I'm sure their was a lot of reminiscing too - a bitter/sweet time.

Thank you for being the solid group of special people that you are.
