From Gil Uribe...
Cathy,
Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that the Jim Bennett Celebration of LIfe get together came out better than I had hoped for. Family and friends were all there and Jim's nephew gave a beautiful and touching speech about his Uncle. Perfect night and the Bennett family really appreciated it.
Have a good one,
Gil
