    Heck of a gesture Wayne. I'd like you to find one that may have been Dennis's closer friends, you know, someone that really should deserve it. I sincerely appreciate being chosen, but feel your efforts should go to a more deserving player. Cheers. Mike

    An honor sir, and as I said in the pm....quite humbled indeed. I'll spend some time this weekend doing some research, and see if we can't get more info on getting a marker to his family, if nobody has found out how yet.... Maybe thru his charity English Springer Spaniel Rescue ???

    I believe Bart Simpson is in charge of quality control on the markers! LMAO Current location (feels like a Santa tracker!):

    I have been watching the Andyson Memorial from time to time. The designer, & promoters deserve accolades, for setting the bar to such heights. From all the entrants, to the simple well-wishers of the event, it will be a Herculean task to outperform this event.

    Just when one thinks the pinnacle has been reached, Silently, nobility steps in.

    It is nobility, that forms the granite foundation, which benevolence, stands unwavering upon.

    One need only open a dictionary, to find Mr. Caddie’s name, synonymous with benevolence.

    Those that know Wayne, know reverence, & have no need for a dictionary. His giving, and promotion of kindness, keep him on an unwavering path towards everlasting rewards.

    All this is done, for the benefit of others, with no regard of self-adulation.

    Andyson marker aside, Wayne has left his mark on society itself. After all is said, & done, a man is judged by his deeds, not his actions.

    I hope, one day, to escalate to ½ of Mr. Caddies contributions, in & outside this game.

    Thank you Wayne, for the constant reminder, of societies ability to show benevolence, for nothing more, than the sake of it, itself.

    Thanks Conveyorguy.

    I don't know your name.

    Two things I need to clear up.

    My FISH won't post!!!

    IDK why.

    I just received a message from Wayne. I had no idea I was to be a recipient of one of these markers. I did not read any of the recipients names, until today, after Wayne's message.

    I am truly humbled by this act, dare I say "speechless" ?

    That MIGHT be, a bit far fetched. Honored I am for sure.

    This is spooky, as I lost my old one, two weekends ago. Halloween is indeed afoot.

    My humblest thanks, to all, for the opportunity, to help keep the spirit of Dennis alive, and well appreciated.

    🎃

    Denny and I chatted on here often, and, although I know the area of Phoenix he lived in, I never knew his actual address....Now I'm about 95% sure I have Dennis/widow's address...but, I want to verify and am trying to make contact with her. If anyone has already done so, please let me know as I don't want to bombard her with strangers contacting her ........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
