This isnt Piet related so my apologies.Right now My wife and I are doing a fund raiser for St. Josephs Home for Children. This has been a very difficult thing to do and I have been asking a lot from everybody I know. St. Joes is a non profit non deminational childrens home that I have been working with since I delivered some children to them back in the mid 1970's when I was employed by the City of Brooklyn Park, Mn. police dept. They are a wonderful organization and they take children from infants thru 17. Whe my dad diied a couple of years ago he left them a good chunk of money and my wife and I wend shopping for things they really needed, like underwear and socks. The older kids are the ones that are short of that sort of thing. If anyone here on this list wants to support this organization I would appreciate it greatly, you could send any deductable donation to;St. Josephs Home for Children Richard Navratil 1415 Skiles Ln. Arden Hills, Mn. 55112Thanks Dick N.________________________________________________________________________________Date: Sat, 12 Jan 2013 11:21:46 -0700Subject: Pietenpol-List: Panel coamings
