Hi all -
This will be the first Chicago Show since 2001 that Shannon has not been able to attend. In 2002 she was a brand new dealer who went to the hotel for one afternoon to find some new lines to carry (she only had Britains at the time). She met with Andy Neilson of a small firm called King & Country (a bit has changed since those days!). At the show she decided to start stocking a company called Forward March, produced by this guy named Richard Walker.
In 2003 she sold in Chicago for the first time.
The Treefrog team will have a book on hand for people to share their memories/best wishes/thoughts with her We encourage folks to swing by room 5117 and jot a note in her book. I look forward to reading it to her after the Show. It will mean a lot to me and my son Ben to have this means of remembering her effect on this hobby after she passes away.
Sorry I'll miss you all, but being with Shannon is my top priority right now. I'll be there in 2016!
