Michigan Slim 4,520 Posted May 25, 2015 My wife was doing some bidding. She fell in love with one of them and it made me really really scared. I think the bidding gave me this chest pain..... Well done Mary! It was a great pleasure to see you again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have attempted to acquire several of her pieces but either got outbid or did not hold the winning ticket. Someday though...

(I laughed till I cried) Sixgun, It was a pleasure to shoot with you. Hope to shoot with you again this year but if not I'll see you at Ohio State next year. Besides, i still owe you an opportunity to yell "Come On Down Ya Big Tree" You and Cheyenne were great T.O.'s and did a great job. Tree Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samuel "Doc" Eells 4 Posted May 25, 2015 I was so touched last year when Mary brought one quilt. This year I was in tears when she told me she had made 3! This is the 6th year Korupt Karl and I have raised money in the fight against cancer and it means more every year. For the likes of Calico Mary and Cheyenne Culpepper to step up and do what they did this year to help means so much! Thanks to all who bought raffle tickets, shot the cancer sucks stage, donated for sausage gravy, donated raffle prizes and bid on auction items. I am to tired to count right now, but will tell you the total is well over $2,000!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Korupt Karl 2 Posted May 25, 2015 Doc, Mary, Cheyenne; ....and all that contributed. Iron Maiden....you are the best. Thanks all for what you do. It is a labor of love for Doc and I...... Cancer is a part of all of our lives in one form or shape or another.....if it hasn't affected you now, it will raise it's ugly head with you or someone dear to you. Thank you, thank you to all who so generously gave of their time, energy, labor and money.....thanks KK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DocWard 4,917 Posted May 25, 2015 Don't know if he still makes em, but her sweetie, Buick is a good knife maker as well He said he works as a cutler, so I'm guessing he still does. He is a true class act as well. Had the pleasure to shoot on the great Posse #5 with Calico Mary and Buick McCain. Truly great people and proud to say they are friends. Thanks for your generosity.

Besides, i still owe you an opportunity to yell "Come On Down Ya Big Tree" You and Cheyenne were great T.O.'s and did a great job. Tree I couldn't have asked for a better posse to be on than #5! Especially considering it was my fourth match over all, spread out over several years, and my first big match. It wouldn't have happened without Mary, Buick and Mean Gun Mark.
