BLOUNT SPRING BREAK 2009

It's hard to believe that it's been 8 months since we lost Jeff. For me personally, it still feels like yesterday and I still get choked up thinking about it, as if it were yesterday. Tina's strength to continue living hasn't wavered the least bit despite the sadness she feels without Jeff. Last minute changes to Spring Break landed the Blount's in Daytona with Melissa, Cody & Harley Lewis and then off to Tina's dads house.

JEFF BLOUNT MEMORIAL GOLF TOURNAMENT POSTPONED

Family and Friends of Jeff Blount,

As we all know, the economy has affected the way we are all living, spending and thinking today. Unfortunately, it has affected our golf tournament as well. Lack of funds and participation have left us with no other choice. The Jeff Blount Memorial Golf Tournament will need to be postponed to a later date. Thank you, to all the special people that have worked so hard to get this tournament together. Please forward this e mail to everyone in your address book to insure we get the word out.

Thank you,
Steve Robinson

JEFF BLOUNT DNF IN WASHINGTON, DC

You will have to check back next week to see where all Jeff and DNF have been in DC.

FROM DARLENE AT SERENDIPITY NEXT TO MILANO'S

FROM DARLENE: I have printed off 50 standard letters regarding this at my store so people can just come by and sign one and put their affiliate with Jeff on there. We have already gotten about 10 of them signed. That way, people don’t have to do it themselves and take the time. SO, feel free to send anyone by the store to sign one. All of my employees have been told what to do so I don’t have to be there. I have also told them to ask all customers if they knew Jeff, and if they did, ask them to sign one. I will bring these letters with me to the meeting on the 22nd or give them to Dean ahead of time.
