Thank you yet again, Bob Gabriel!!

[Staci Matheis]

In Bob's words.....



"I would like to donate a 1/2 gallon jug of Vermont Pure Maple Syrup since it is a major product of Vermont. This isn't corn syrup or any other fake stuff like Aunt Jamima!! This is the real stuff. Also, you don't need to put my name in full caps on the heading of a post!!"



I don't need to.....

But you deserve it!

So I did!

But then you called and said you didn't like the attention.....

So I changed it.



How can you want to get the Big Bass plaque and expect to not get attention?



Thank you Mr. Gabriel!















(What's a nice, modest guy like Bob doing hanging around with Rob? LOL!!)

 

[Rich Stern]

Well, Bob, at least your name isn't capitalized.

Bob, as I said in the "Generosity" post, I am overwhelmed by the Members of this board..... When I started looking for door prizes a few months ago, I had only wanted people who had "corporate" connections to donate..... Then one of our members made an offer. I responded that I didn't want individuals to think I had aimed my post at them. But the Member insisted..... And then another ..... And another.....



I just can't believe the way people have asked to give!

I have no other way of expressing appreciation other than to post names in caps.....

And even that is not nearly enough.



So, I'll say it again.....

And expect to hear it many, many more times.....



God Bless All of You!
