Re: FW: Donations

Hi Linda
I would like to thank you and your mother for these very generous donations.
I suspect that your mother is referring to our SPRING convention which is where we have a silent auction. (there is no auction at the fall business meeting.)
This year, our spring convention is in Madison, Wisconsin the first week of June.
Perhaps someone down south could be of assistance?

I just received the below email from Linda Karl, who wishes to donate some of her mother's iris related items for the 2010 Fall Convention.  Since I only deal with money donations, I am hoping one of you will be able to help her.

 Hi.

I am Linda Karl . My mother's name is Marjorie Starkey , from Akron Michigan. She is a life time member, and Is giving up her home in Florida.

She has a chandelier  with frosted iris on it. Also has 2 smaller ceiling lights  with frosted Iris on them. She wishes to have them donated to you  for the fall convention to be auctioned off.

I believe she paid $750.00 for the chandelier, and around $250.00 each for the ceiling lights. What I would like to know if there is anyone that I could take these too here in Florida that comes to the Fall convention. I am 50 miles south of Tampa near Bradenton, Fl.

 They are very pretty and I would like to carry out her wishes. If you could provide me with a name and phone number or an address, I would be delighted. Thank you for any advice you can provide to me.

 

All for the love of Iris.

Linda Karl
