OVER it.
Am I the only one that is over Michael Kors bags? They are a dime a dozen, everyone has one, and you can find one anywhere. Is it just me?

Dear friends and family,
As many of you know I have two very close causes that I feel strongly about supporting, one is a cure for lymphoma and the other is our countries veterans. This one if for the vets!
My father was a closet Vietnam veteran my whole life, I never understood why it wasn't something we discussed at home. After his retirement while snowboarding with our family in Angelfire he suffered a heart attack on the mountain. It was that moment we discovered something was wrong, when they air lifted him out of Santa Fe he began to have life threatening combat flashbacks. As it turns out, my Dad was diagnosed in Albuquerque with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder brought on by intense combat situations. My father went through some really great therapy and came back home a new man. Every since that day he has dedicated his life to helping veterans better integrate into life after returning from their deployment. He runs an organization called Vets Journey Home Texas Inc., that has received nationwide attention.

For the first time he is attempting to raise funds for his organization with a golf tournament. I have been put in charge of his silent auction and would love some help. If you have anything at all that can go into a silent auction I am more than ready to pick it up or you can put it into mail to me at 14018 Overbrook Lane, Houston, Texas 77077. There will be more than 200 people at this event so if you have a company and would like some marketing in the Katy area let me know, I can place your information on the silent auction table with your donation. I'm also looking for crafty items, the VFW Ladies Auxiliary is joining us and they always love shopping for craft items.
I have attached the silent auction request letter if you have anyone in mind that may be able to donate an item or if your company just needs more information.
Additionally, you can go to https://www.formstack.com/forms/?1593938-QklJm35AQY, to find out more about the event. Join us if you can, it's going to be an amazing day. We are flying in a beautiful granite memorial wall honoring veterans, there will also be active duty soldiers and combat vehicles to honor and tour.
Give me a call if you have any questions, 713-899-1063 and thank you so very much for making it to the bottom of this email. :)
