Hello Paul,
I do not have a fax, if you would please send via e-mail or regular mail: - Alabama. Paul, last conversation we had by phone (July) you promised to give me a call to up-date me as to whether any organization (s) had inquired further regarding Loving Hands, I have not received that call to date. I would greatly appreciate if possible a 3-5 minute up-date at your earliest convenience.
