Blake Saunders among the wreckage

First of all, I just wanted to thank everyone that has contacted me about giving to Blake:

-Sarah Bloomberg
-Jonathan Mehl
-Nathan Anderson
-Rachel Welch
-Rachel Kjos
 

Ken Griffith, R.C Sproul Jr, and Jonathon Landell, all seem to be doing an awesome job of organizing things and keeping people informed. Thanks you guys...Blake is definitely worth it.

Speaking of Mr. Griffith...here's a revised instrument list that he just sent out. All of these instruments were destroyed in the fire. (See previous post for details.)

- Hammer Dulcimer - 2.5 octave type
- 6 string guitar "Washburn"
- 5 string Banjo "Kay" (John Larson's)
- Custom made Pennywhistle
- Harmonica - forgot to ask what kind
- Mandola (Brett's)
- Dobro (Barfield's)
- Home made lap dulcimer (not a high value one)

If you would like to help out monetarily, just write out your checks to "Blake Saunders" and send them to my address:

Ben Lueders
19213 Costanzo Plz. Apt 2B
Elkhorn, NE 68022

As soon as I started talking with Blake two weeks ago, I knew I would have to write a song about him. This fire has only strengthened my resolve. The song will be called "The Richest Man that Ever Lived". I'm almost finished with it...
