&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;All of the businesses who &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;had &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;sent RSVPs expressing&lt;/FONT&gt; their willingness to come,&amp;nbsp;didn’t make it for the following reasons:&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;1. Had to drive his daughter to a voice class&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT size=2&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff"&gt;2.&amp;nbsp;ABC&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff"&gt; – Left package &amp;amp; message&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;3. Was too busy&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;4. Couldn’t miss grandson’s baseball game&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;6. Thought it &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;was&lt;/FONT&gt; going to be next Monday, so he went to Tim’s &lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;7. Was out of town&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;8. Nose surgery, and just got back from Columbia on Wednesday&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;9. Had back &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;pain&lt;/FONT&gt;, couldn’t walk, and son was sick&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;10. Had things came up and didn’t go &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;to &lt;/FONT&gt;either one. If he could &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;have gone&lt;/FONT&gt;, he would &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;have gone&lt;/FONT&gt; to Tim’s. He thought&amp;nbsp;Tim&lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;'s&lt;/FONT&gt; and our&lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;s were&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt; the same. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;11. Thought we were going to send them a ticket or something so didn’t look at the calendar&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial size=2&gt;12. Just wrote the word “Ford” on the calendar, so couldn’t figure &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;out &lt;/FONT&gt;what it was until I left the package and called. &lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT size=2&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;13. Found out wife has cancer, and had to be with her.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;FONT face=Arial&gt;The owner of&amp;nbsp;ABC and EDF&amp;nbsp;couldn’t be reached, but I left the owner a package and did &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;a follow-up phone call with them&lt;/FONT&gt;. Also, Mr. David Smith had asked when the City &lt;FONT color=#ff0000&gt;was&lt;/FONT&gt; going to do anything about the old tree roots in front of his business. He said it looks ugly and weeds are growing on it. He had brought it up in the survey as well as talked to me about it.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Please help.
