Digger,
I sent you a couple of PM, but I wanted to give the perspective of how my quest started:
My name is Roger Gunter, I am the president of the parents booster club for the Air Force Academy lacrosse program. My son is a junior, his head coach was involved in a car accident with his wife and two little girls, the accident should have never happened as they should have been on a lacrosse trip but due to the government shutdown, events like this were canceled. The accident resulted in her death, her name was Sonia and she was named after the rose. A General, close to the program, witnessed on the day of the memorial service that a single rose was still blooming outside the church. He got the idea to honor Sonia with a sticker of the Sonia rose that the boys would wear on their helmets. In searching for the Sonia rose I came across your picture, photo id 52251, and felt is was the best representation of a lasting tribute, not only because of the quality but also because it has her name next to the rose. The stickers need to round so they will stay on and the picture will need a little photo shopping in order for that to occur and keep the name visible. I am asking your permission to use the photo for this purpose. The sticker would only be available to active lacrosse players while they play for the Air Force Falcons Lacrosse program.
Respectfully,
Roger Gunter
PS any of the following pictures in High Res would work, order based on preference 127887, 40741, 93618, 52251

You might have an easier time reaching someone for permission if you sent them a private message through the system. It appears they haven't visited this site for nearly ten months.

Hi Dave and Deb! Great! I'm glad it worked. When I see someone hasn't visited the site in a while, I begin to become concerned. I don't want to intrude, so I begin trying to keep an eye out in hopes all is OK. Too often, it isn't. I'm very happy you're back and hope all is well with you and yours. Thank you for letting me know!

I was an Air Force brat in the 50s and 60s. Got to visit the AFA right after it opened. Let me know if you need a better copy of the photo. I'm working away from home so it may take a week for me to answer.

Any way you could send me the high res picture, I am ready to get the stickers made and they are requesting a high res version? It would be best if you could send the high res picture to my work email that I will give to you via a private message.

Respectfullly, Roger. Including your email address in a comment attracts spam to the site. Would you delete it please. Private messages are the way to go to contact other members.

I am the president of the parents booster club for the US Air Force Academy Lacrosse Program. Recently the head coach of the program lost his wife, Sonia, in car accident. As a tribute to her the boys want to develop a decal that would be worn exclusively by the lacrosse team. One of the best pictures I have found is from the following link http://www.helpmefind.com/gardening/l.php?l=21.52251, may I permission to move forward with the development of the decal?
Respectfully,
Roger Gunter

Dear Mr. Gunter,
We're very sorry to learn of head coach's loss. Permission to use a photo found on HMF must be granted by the photo's contributor. If you click on the photo's "courtesy of" name you can leave this member a private message and we will in turn contact them to alert them of a new message for them. I'm sure they will be happy to cooperate.
