Trina sent this to me in an email last week. Epoman's marker turned out so nice and I wanted to share it with the IHD family. I posted the picture in his memorial thread but no one has visited it so I thought I would post it here.

Thanks for sharing the picture, Sluff.  It is a lovely marker.  Still don't think he is really gone sometimes.  I sure do miss his comments---he kept us all straight!

I would love to take the credit but Trina had this done. Thanks anyway. She sent me the picture ,but I had known she was working on it and she was trying to get it done before the one year anniversary of his passing but didn't make it. But it turned out nice and I told her I was posting the picture for all of you to see.
