Dear ListServ,
I am sorry about that last message but I don't have time for games
or b.s. Tyrrone and I just finished off the shoveling as it is snowing
here in Maine. We are expected to get 24 inches of snow today. but I
seem to think the realistic number is 2-3 inches. Hard to say as I am
not a meteorologist or a weather forecaster, et. al.
If you would like to send donations of money for the Ivan Suzman
fund as he is in danger of losing his house, that would be fine. You can
send them to The Ivan Suzman Fund C/O Ivan Suzman 9 Range Road Portland,
Maine 04103 and you can send him cards of get well wishes to either
address or to the hospital he is staying at at Memorial Hospital C/O
Ivan Suzman, 11 Brewster Street, Pawtuckett, Rhode Island 02860. Cards
and Warm Greetings are the best thing he can receive right now.
All donations will be given to the Parkinsons Fund for Maine
Residents.
Sincerely,
Ashley Lenartson
Healer
