hats off to Sheriff George V. Hanna, seems like a good man and someone who understands the importance of a gathering

You guys are totally right. George is a deputy in our small village of Cuba and is a great guy. He would give you the shirt off his back if you asked. Full of love and even the occasional exaggerated story, but a funny, kind, loving man. I never got to go to the gathering, but might in the future. It's great to see that you guys picked up on his positive energy. I'll let him know all the nice things you said here, although he has probably already read them :)
