I intend on going to this

----------------------------
Saturday, June 21st, 7pm Comic Relief invites you to
join in a celebration of the life of Rory Root.

All are welcome, regardless of relation to Rory.
Long-time friends to casual shoppers of the store-
and total strangers, come and hear stories from some of
the people who knew him the best.

Rory had a vision that Comic Relief would thrive
and bring people together with that special book that
would plant a seed of love for the art of comics; we
hope that you will share with us that vision on June 21st,
and long into the future.
