- A note from Gail Gygax:
Have you heard about my project to get a memorial to Gary in Library Park?
Currently I am waiting to hear if the Parks Board has approved. Then it goes to the city council.
While I can't tell you all the details of the memorial - if approved - will be great - the few people that know the concept are wild about it - so I am excited.
I have started a non-profit org, TIN, attorney and accountant. I will be getting a website up soon - GygaxMemorialFund.com. Also plan fund raiser at Gen Con and if all goes well, will give part of the proceeds from auctioning Gary's collection towards the memorial.
