LOL

Just another mis-representation by Sean. I know of only one minister in California that was given a Jag, so if he is referring to a particular pastor who became a UPCI official, here are some additional facts.

1) It was not only the 30th anniversary of his pastorate, it was also his departure from the church to to go Headquarters.

2) It was most definitely NOT in a lavish hotel conference room. It was in a building at the county fairgrounds. A large room that many people spent time and their own money and personal items to decorate and make beautiful for the occasion of honoring a great man!

Sean, I've seen many of your postings and negative comments and have just let it roll off me like water off a duck, even when I was pretty certain that you were mis-representing some things. However, I couldn't let this one pass.

You know, you are right. It has been almost 10 years ago....

There were 2 parties for them...

The big formal, catered "shabang" was at the Red Lion Inn with Greg McCool entertaining...

The fairgrounds was the 2nd one.

I think the car was presented at the Red lion Inn, if I remember right, By J.L..

Then it was rolled out at the fairgrounds.

Sorry about the sequence of events mix up.

Maybe you remember when the car was presented exactly? Did you go to the Red Lion Inn event?
