As a final thought, David and I stopped by Dan and Edith’s store at the European Village to say hi. Dan and Edith both wanted us to say hi to everyone. They have not forgotten us. Their store closes at 6:00 pm and by the time everything is secured it is usually to late for them to get to the meeting. The store is beautiful. Every member should take a moment the next time you are near their location to stop by and say hi.
