[PAA-Discuss] Don Seributra's mother died

[Bill Crosier]

For those of you who know Don Seributra (who sometimes goes by "Emissary" or "Willie Dynamite", and who has been active in the Houston art car community and Harris Co. YD's, among other groups) -- his mother died Saturday.

I didn't know his mom, but if you would like to contact Don, see his note below.  She did not want a funeral but if you know him please feel free to send him a note.

Our thoughts are with Don and his family during this difficult time.
