Charlie, I have known Stasa for over 7 years, and have made 5 trips to Serbia, through the Balkans and Kudritz ( my grandmother's birth place). We have also helped with the restoration of the church. So, I would like to do anything I can do to assist Stasa if he is able to attend. Plans now are to arrive in Minn on Thursday and leave on Sunday. We of course will change our length of stay to accommodate Stasa. Please keep me informed of your plans, I love to b0e invo9lved.
