Since I met Susan L. at her walk last year, I may be able to tell you apart. Also, Eva was kind enough to send me a couple of pictures, so now I have "met" both you and Ray.
Suzanne,
Haven't seen a picture of you yet, but the spelling will help out.
I'm looking forward to meeting everyone in Sept.
Maybe with enough notice, Jim will be able to make it.

Joined: Jun 2008 Posts: 475 | Christine, It was great to talk to you and your daughter, she is lovely!! It was a good day. Sorry I did not say goodbye! You know I never win anything, so it was really nice to win!!
Jerry, sorry all the Susans/Suzannes are making your head spin! LOL. Suzanne has long brown hair, that should make her stand out (and young!!) NOt that Susan M. and myself are not young, but she is "younger"!!
So looking forward to seeing everyone at my walk in September! This is so wonderful to see everyone a few times a year!
