In honor of this fund, Abby & I have made some pens and will be selling them with all of the profits on the Cocobolo and Bocote pens, selling for $20.00, going to the SJMF. On Saturday, June 8th, 2013 we'll be set up in downtown Watertown, SD in front of the Northern Light Stain Glass shop selling our pens, and if you buy one, we'll throw in a Yellow Rose. For my friends and family members online, if you would like to purchase one, let me know, send $20.00 to me at 1122 43rd St. NW, Watertown, SD 57201, and I'll mail you one.(Sorry no rose)
