Donation in lieu of Flowers

For those that would like to help the Hooten's have asked that in lieu of flowers that donations be made to Cystic Fibrosis in the Hooten name. Here are some links to help you out. Thank you all for your prayers and support shown to the Hootens during this time. It is greatly appreciated. I have talked to Paul daily and he also expresses his deepest thanks to all. Again Thank you.
