		<description>The event was incredible. I&#039;m really glad we got to visit with you. Maybe we could swing by the farm sometime soon?</description>

		<description>Will there be another event like this? If so I would love to come down. I unfortunately didn&#039;t hear about it until it was too late. I live in Boston and would need some time to plan to get back down to Virginia. 

I knew Scott in high school and I liked him very much. If there will be another event like this, I can  help draw some attention to it. I work for Beeradvocate.com. I can get breweries to sponsor the event and things like that.   

If you ever want that kind of support or help in setting up an event, please don&#039;t hesitate to contact me.

		<description>Thanks to everyone for helping us make this happen. For months now I&#039;ve felt the overwhelming need to do *something*, and now it seems we&#039;ve started something larger than ourselves. Scott and I organized various kinds of &quot;events&quot; over the course of our youth (some more successful than others) and I knew this would have to be done in that spirit. To that end, if nothing else, we succeeded - and have been given the opportunity to help many others as a result. Whatever comes, I know this will burn brightly. I look forward to seeing all of you (and more) the next time around, when ever and where ever.</description>

		<description>I had an amazing time, it was both sad and uplifting at the same time, and once again i managed to feel close to my friend Scott by being around his family and friends. I feel like i can never do enough to celebrate what an amazing person he was. Thank you Scott, for bringing us all together, and thanks to everyone for being there and lifting a glass in his name. We honor him in our actions and in our memories.</description>

		<description>Ed, Marti, Kevin, Christy and thanks to Sean, Suzy and Linda - we were following the great event from afar and so glad that all went well.  When talking with Ed on Saturday afternoon the excitement in his voice was so clear - what a great event... what a wonderful way to honor Scott and help out the Yellow Ribbon Fund.  So glad it happened and that we could play a part from afar.  People here in Puerto Rico who do not even know our family were asking how the evening went!  Would be great to have another one next year - perhaps we can make that!  Missing Scott and loving all of you - Susan and John</description>
