EMAIL DETAILS

Hunter,

Just left you a message at your office (I understand you’re traveling).

My father and I met with Steve Ricchetti last Thursday about the attached invite to honor your brother and dad on October 27. We want Washington (and the world) to understand how truly courageous your brother was - like the rare and unbridled courage the Greeks showed in WWII - and your father as he has shown in the many trials he’s been through.

With the event now just 7 weeks away, we are hoping to start announcing that we’ll be honoring Beau and your dad on 10/27. And if your dad’s schedule won’t allow for him to be there in the end, perhaps he can send a video.

Would appreciate your thoughts on how we can lock them in as the honorees.

thank you,

Mike
