Hello CHers...

I received an email last night from Cindy Price, wife of Tom Price (BigTom) 
who has long produced and sold our "official" CH membership cards.  Many of 
us have had them for years but they have not been promoted for a long time 
as Tom was unable to post to the list anymore.

At any rate, Cindy informed me that Tom died rather suddenly on Dec. 21st. 
I don't have details but what she wanted us to know was that she will not be 
continuing with the production of the cards.  She is willing to turn over 
all the materials she has plus the graphic if anyone on the list wants to 
take on this little business.  She said he didn't keep very good records so 
she doesn't know where the numbers left off but perhaps someone here does 
have that info.  She will just send whatever she has and hope the recipient 
can make some sense of it.  She will also forward any requests for cards to 
the new person's email address.

Is anyone intereted in keeping this going?  I don't think it would be a 
difficult thing and it really is fun to be a card-carrying chile head.  If 
the new producer was also a member of other lists, there would most likely 
be a good market for cards.  Most of us on this list have them, I believe 
(perhaps I'm wrong; someone correct me if that's the case).

Since Cindy can't post, I'll pass along any comments to her.  Tom was a nice 
guy.  He and Cindy hosted the Midwest Hot Luck a few years ago at their home 
in Des Moines, IA.
