MAKE Time to create the Wire Bouquet!!

I know. I'm going to try my darndest. I didn't think of it until this afternoon, otherwise I would have been working on it. It takes me a few hours usually to make a good one. And we're already driving two hours out of route to go to his house as it is. Technically, we could get suspended for that, but of course my boss has a heart. I highly doubt he would if he caught us.

p.s. The story that he is paralyzed from the neck down was misinformation. His vocal cords are paralyzed from the blood clots, but he isn't paralyzed from the neck down. Someone got confused.

How'd it go, Tonya...?

Was the Crew able to stop at Lee's home?

[Tonya]

One of the guys I work with, Rob, was friends with Lee's son since he was a little boy. Rob called first, and Lee's brother politely asked that just Rob come and drop the package off. He said things are looking really grave right now. I've text messaged Rob to see how things went. Rob either is still there, or to upset to call me back.

Tonya,

I missed this thread yesterday, I am so sorry about this. I doubt I could have added anything that would have been any use anyway.

I just wanted to let you know that I am sending prayers of comfort and love for Lee and his family, and also to you. This is a very difficult time for all involved, be it family or friend.

Nothing much else to say, except.
{{{{{HUGS to all}}}}}}

He called our boss personally today. Apparently, his larnyx is no longer paralyzed. He can talk again. He is bedridden and they still say he has one week left, but he feels he has more. He officially retired as of Tuesday. He invited us all to his house for a retirement party on Saturday. That just goes to show what a good spirited guy Lee is. I really want to give him a priceless retirement gift. Any ideas?

I know. I just feel so inadequate right now though. I feel like my bouquet wouldn't be good enough. You are right though, that will be a good gift. I'm going to bring wire home tomorrow and start it. I'll show you all pictures then I am done.
