Re: "Ranchos Support Fund"

["Richard and Kitty Cortez" <kcortez@...>]

Joseph, when I was working I was in charge of the weekly football 
pool, so I feel I could handle the Ranchos Support Fund if we decide 
to go thru with this.  Thank you for your confidence in my ability.  
Rich and I can also pledge $25.00, but let it be known that others 
can pledge $1.00, $10.00 or whatever they feel comfortable.  Some of 
us retired folks are on fixed incomes. 

Happy Thanksgiving to all
