The show was for the benefit of The Lift Garage, a shop that does first-rate safety repairs at cut-rate prices for the working poor. Here, a failure of an automobile can trigger homelessness. We made a substantial contribution, and will encourage folks here to do the same instead of flowers when we announce a Celebration of Life for Susie.</div><div><br></div><div> </div><div> </div></div><span class="gmail_signature_prefix">-- </span><br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana,geneva,lucida,"lucida grande",arial,helvetica,sans-serif;font-size:12.8px;background-color:rgb(239,239,239)">Phil Ethier West Side Saint Paul Minnesota USA</span><br></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana,geneva,lucida,"lucida grande",arial,helvetica,sans-serif;background-color:rgb(239,239,239)">1973 Triumph Stag LE22439UBW "uncle jack", Sapphire Blue</span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
