Update on Jerry Olson Memorial Exchange

2004-04-07 by Tom OConnell

Hi all-

Just thought that those of you who participated in the Jerry Olson 
Memorial exchange would like an update on the disposition of the 
extra set of prints we sent to his mother.

She handed them over to a friend at the University who, in turn, 
organized a benefit for the Humane Societ Cat Fund (Jerry's favorite 
charity) and included our prints in the items that were auctioned off.

I received the following email today from Jerry's friend, Gary:

>>I thought you may like to know. We had the art auction in March and 
we sold 60 of the 210 prints. I gave the Humane Soc almost $300 in 
Jerry's name. The best part though is that some 60 photo students 
came to look at the prints and I beleive some menbers of your group 
will get a email from some of them.I want to thank you and the 
menbers of your group who let yor prints be sold. The art gallery is 
not very well run so I advertised hard. Well thanks again and please 
pass my thanks to the group. Gary Redman<<

Thanks again to all of you who made this happen.

Tom O'Connell
