Memorial donations in honor of Jimmy's mother, Peets, can be made to :

The Mary Loraine Peets Buffett Scholarship
At the University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Coast Campus
730 East Beach Blvd.
Long Beach, MS 39560

or

Mercy Medical Hospice Development Office
PO Box 1090
Daphne, AL 36526
Thanks for the info ejr. Glad to see there is so much support out there for this. As it says in grovercxl's sig, "Buffett fans are a breed apart. Just like JB himself" and this is yet another example.

If PHAW doesn't mind handling the PayPal aspect, that would be great. Otherwise, I can take care of that.

What are your thoughts on donating to either the scholarship or Mercy Medical Hospice? Personally, my vote goes to the scholarship.

My local PH group is holding a fund raiser dance tonight, I am lobbying to have some of the proceeds go to the scholarship fund.

Count me in for the BN contribution as a solo act.
