for 4/8/08
would send
agenda; he
don't know
I spoke with Jordan re: proclamation that you requested
and he said that he couldn't make that one, so I told him that I
him a sample proclamation for him to write his for the 4/22/08
said that it's hard for him and his staff to get to Naples, so I
for certain if he will participate;
I also told him that you would be attending the April 11th event and
purchasing the $50 ticket and that he would get a for.mal RSVP and that you
would bring a check with you to the function because if needed due to time
restraints. Please bring checkbook with you next time you come to the
office. Thank you.
