| Lucky me - I actually signed the wall in your lovely shop. My wife loves the bowl I bought. She misses her horses and the blue bowl with the horse in the bottom is perfect. It might have been because "the kiln speaks" as you so eloquently told me, but I believe you had a bit to do with it as well. We shall buy more. You bet. |

| Purchased the handbuilt Prairie Fire tray on 8/21/07. I have placed it in its "special place" in our living room. It is beautiful and it "speaks" to me that its colors are North Dakota. I love the free form of the tray and the way you did the protection molds and pads on the bottom. Many thanks! |

| I left out that Ruth is Major Baily's sister, his only surviving sibling. What an honor it was to present her with one of your beautiful pitchers. Now I have to get two more more Ruth's daughters. |
| |
| Kenneth Bailey,
Sidney, MT |
| On the Feb 21st I delivered a beautiful blue pitcher to the Major Kenneth D. Bailey, USMC. Ruth absolutely loved the pitcher as did her daughters. Please read a short bio on the Major below:
Major Kenneth D. Bailey was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor on 24 March 1943, by President Franklin D. Roosevelt during a special ceremony at the White House, for heroic conduct during action in the Solomon Islands. The medal was presented to Maj Bailey's wife. He was awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions during an intense battle to repulse the enemy at Henerson Field on Guadalcanal.
