normiss 896 #1 January 23, 2007 OK folks, it's time. I have about $300 pledged towards a memorial page for Johnny. I currently have the inside back cover of the April issue reserved (can we get it dated the 20th of the month???? - or number the page 20????he would love that!) Anyway...I have just created a Paypal account and will post that as soon as I hear back from family and friends regarding where to send any extra money to. I also need pictures collected ASAP please. If you have them send them in. E-mail to mark@markcochran.com or turn them into manifest at Skydivecity. Let's get this set up and make him a sweeeeeet memorial.muff!
