i was listening to 98.1 this morning and was very pleased at the comments made by Bucky & Bob about SPC Pagan. they attended his services and were moved. visit their site http://www.kvet.com/pages/buckyandbob.html for more information. on a side note, they had very nice comments to say about the PGR support. this is an excellent example of the many positive attributes of the PGR members, each and everyone of us brings goodness to the whole.
