Hi Colonel Dan,



just a note from Gail in Gibson City



Coming up in Edwards, Illinois Sep 19 & 20, 2009 @ Seven Circles Heritage Center

The 5th Annual Veterans Friendship Pow Wow



The Tazewell County 40 et 8 are sponsering the Agent Orange Quilt of Tears Display, my brother, Chris is chef de garde, and can be contacted: 1-309-242-5229

looking for donations to help with this project



Also, My deceased husband, Sgt. Harrison"Bud" Seward was a Agent Orange related death & I will be presenting my quilt block to Henry & Shiela Synder, overseers of Quilt of Tears, at this Pow Wow.



At present, I am taking my quilt block & using it as a tool to teach others about the project "Quilt of Tears"



I'm sending this info to you because you are working a Veteran's Advocate & you may have some idea how to help raise more funds & get the word out that the "Quilts" will be here in Sep



Thanks

Gail Seward

Alan,

If I lived within a few hours from there, I would go, it looks like it would be rewarding and fun.

One of Hadits Members started the quilt of tears memorial and I saw it displayed in Abilene Texas. I think her name was Jennie and she was a wonderful woman who loved Veterans. She died a couple to three years ago.
