Folks, as nynn444 mentioned above, AIC has been kind enough to put up a couple of really nice premium pieces at Penny Auction for the benefit of the Eaglesnest Medical Expense fund raiser. Here are a couple links that'll make it easier to link to these auctions.
7174321 7174293
Thanks, AIC for your support of a fellow AuctionArms member's family in their time of sorrow and need. |

| (no avatar) | Dear AA and All that touched my Eagle, First I must say that the Eagle was a very prideful man and I do not know about restraint (Petesguns) however you did hit it on the head when you said plain total class. I think (Nynn 444) said it best, that he was an Old Warrior. That he was. When I first contacted (Nynn 444) I really wasn't sure what the Ole Eagle had told anyone as I said he was a prideful man. I know he did not want me near AA. There were times he did show me e-mails and photo's and the joy I received in my heart when he was so sick after a Kemo treatment and the laughter that would come from the office filled me with happiness. He has been so blessed to have you all in his life and he knew it. The surprise on his face when he realized the cap sent by AA had been signed by all and boy did I have fun with the cat card. It was purrfect! I hung the card and cap over his bed for all to see. I am so thankful to (Nynn 444 and Lynn,) the Eagle had a special place in his heart for all but he thought Nynn 444 was a pretty special guy. When Nynn 444 told me about the Cathearder special I had to shed a tear or two just as I did when I saw that the Cathearder Special had been sold. (Thanks Bob)I could not have gotten in without your help. I only wish he could have seen the out pour of support. He would have loved that (someone) had put up his original ad. He spent many hours on each gun, taking just the right photo and saying just the right words no one could ever guess what a prefectionist he was. I pray that God will bless each and everyone of you that helped to make this auction such a success and thank you again from the bottom of my heart for the good times, the growl times and the roll in the floor times you gave to Leo!

| (no avatar) | Thanks Candy ; That post is worth more than you realize to me, and I am sure , to a lot of other members . I think I can safely say that we would be honored if you kept taking part in our forums . First , it keeps the "EAGLESNEST" name alive . And second ; Some of us need a good firm "WOMANS" point of view , every now and then to keep us in line . GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS ."THE OLD BACKWOODS GUNTRADER" Jim That "somebody" that pulled back "EAGLES" original add was "WILLIE TA" |

| (no avatar) | Hello everyone, We the children of eaglesnest would like to thank each and every person for thier kind comments of our father (and father in-law). we will miss him very much along with the moans and laughs that came from his little office. He enjoyed the friendships that he has with all of you and you all made him smile with the hat that was sent to him. We would also like to thank you for your gracious efforts with the auctions. Candy is a wonderful person and is very strong. She and Shannon (eaglesnest daughter) stayed by his side day and night for the last few months and they worked endlessly to make him feel loved. I am eaglesnest son-in-law and I am amazed by the generosity of the Auction Arms family. We just wanted to say God bless you all, and thank you from the bottom of our hearts. eaglesnest II |
