What a success.  Never in my wildest dreams did I expect the Benefit Sale to be as huge as it turned out to be.  We ended up with literally hundreds of items for our sale, most of which was donated by others - many of whom we did not even know. 

Saturday morning it started at about 6:45 AM.  The pro's were there with their flashlights as they picked their way through the items.  Clothing, furniture, appliances, shoes, designer handbags, framed art, candles, books...and of course the ceramic pig collection.  And they bought.  And bought.  And bought.  And if they didn't find anything to buy, most would walk up with a folded bill and hand it to one of us as they looked over our shoulders at the blown up photos of Jack and Shawn. 

All us us in both families want to thank everyone who had their hand, and heart, in making this weekend such a success.

Thank you.
