>> Howdy everyone!
>> I was speaking with Vincent Chaney yesterday, and we threw around the 
>> idea of giving something to Gail Bryant in loving memory of Ed.
>> I would love to make something out of clay, but am open to any ideas.
>> A plaque seems pretty ordinary, so thought y'all might come up with some

>> We can then present it to Gail at our DAN meeting at National!
>> Let me know what you think!
