MEMORIAL PLAQUE UPDATE Frank Connelly forwarded via email a report on the status of the memorial plaque,stating that Baker Monument Company was sold to Grafton Briggs. Frank stated in his email the following information: "I checked with Betty Baker and they still have the original bronze plaque with the slight typo. They are willing to give us this plaque.free of charge($700 value). Grafton will install it and enhance the setting of the unit so it would be extremely difficult to remove,and said it would be about$150.00 to$200.00 for this service. I informed him that we would make a decision very soon on this as not to drag it out any further. Grafton needs acoess to the stone up to 40 feet so he can use his diamond saw to set the plaque deeper and seal it from the crooks. Grafton believes that there is agate that needs a key to enable him to get his truck and generator closer tote rock. I would like to tell him to set a date before the bad weather sets in:and we would have to wait until spring. Let's strike while the iron is hot this time and put this issue behind us."
