Hate to ask you to go through this trouble but this woman was very interested in participating and even offered to help financially (not too many people these days volunteer unsolicited). I would hate for her to think I just blew her off. My home phone is 668-2755 cell 545-3869. Thank-you! Su Ecenia”
