Re: Re:AIS: St. Louis Convention

Gerry, we will miss your sweet smiling face.  We have enjoyed seeing you at
every National Convention we have attended.  But glad to hear that you are
able
to return to work.  You had a terrible accident and Ernie and I were
thinking about
you just this past weekend......wondering if you would be able to come.
Won't be
the same without you but hopefully by next year, we'll see you in Oregon.
We are
all keeping our fingers crossed about our bloom here in Southern Illinois.
This
cold and rainy weather of late is bound to affect it.  We are in charge of
the
convention show on Wednesday and are also bus captains for the tours.(We'll
probably have those busses down every alley way in St Louis before we get
them to the garden and back to the hotel)  Wish us luck and you take care!
Ann Henson
