Diane...what an event.  I would love to come but cannot do so, Cyndi needs to stay close to home for a bit longer time.  I have always been interested in the true history of African American culture.  I served in the Marines with a great bunch of guys I will never forget, some made it home and others did not.  I hope this event is successful, how could it not be?  God bless Diane.

Debbie:  I really know you would - I plan to attend and take pictures.  "Najwa" is the actual name of the dance instructor who gave me permission to post these pictures.

Bob:  How nice of you to show an interest!  By all means, i do understand your priorities for the welfare of your Cyndi, and will make sure extra pictures are taken to post.  Thank you for the blessings Bob!
