Gratitude II



Bob and Betty Jo Bellino Campo
You may think you know all about their contributions, having seen the lovingly, and beautifully-crafted guitar, Betty Jo's silent auction items and their hard work at the registration table Saturday night, but that's not even close to all for which I have to be thankful.   Bob and Betty Jo were the first to welcome me home in the planning process, (a yummy BBQ lunch), and they didn't stop with that!   

Without knowing it, and in the most gentle way, the two of them kept me on task sending pictures of the guitar in progress, and questioning me about every detail of the reunion.    I never would have thought about the mechanics of registration or much of anything without them.  

But what I most appreciate about this dynamic duo is their sensitivity and kindness.   It seems like every time I got ornery or the tiniest bit stressed, the telephone rang...  it was always one of them checking on me.  And naturally this happened while Bob was experiencing terrible back pain and the two of them were seeing their daughter through her pregnancy and the birth of her child.  

You two are the best ever!
