The dinner was scheduled in conjunction
with the end of the RTDA, in near by Orlando, which made it possible for
a great number of non-locals to attend. Those joining us for dinner included:
Al DeMott, Rita Wiles, Al Parsons, Steve Weinberg,
Andy Miller, Alberto Medino and his wife Erate, Arturo Torano and his wife
Tracy, Bobby Holstein, Heather Hope, Craig Stone, Dan Harris, Tom Coyle,
Oscar Sherr, John Schmatz, Dave McMaster, Greg Mays, Harvey Green, John
Chunko, John Donaldson, Jonni Drue, Ken Dixon, Michael Chunko, Jeff Allen,
Mike Goodman, Quique Silve, Rafael Marquez, Ralph Blackwell, Rip Kemp,
Sal Honono and Steve Saka.
Many of the local Miami dealers and manufacturers made generous donations
and extended deep discounts to help us with our evening. The Sponsors included:
Padron Cigars, PIO Cigars, Puros Indios, Cigar Express, D-Raymon Cigars,
Harriels Tobacco Shop, Havana Humidor, Csonka Cigar Requisites, SBC Cigar
Company, and Smokers Gallery of Boca Raton. We greatly appreciated their
support, their contributions help to make it an enjoyable evening for all.
Our dinners were splendid, the cigars were delicious, and the company
was exception. Rip proved himself once again to be the most gracious of
hosts. Rather than read about it though you should take a look at the pictures
- the color captured smiles tell the whole story! |
