So a good friend of mine passed suddenly not to long ago from a big rig tire blowing up and he was to close.. Its a whole crazy story, that ill spare the gory details to.. Anyways there is a benefit to try to help out his family in these hard times, I made this beerstein to raffle off there and I am making several other cool things to raffle/auction off to help out.mike was a fan of glass blowers, and supported them anytime he could..He never asked for money to lend even an aquaintance of his a helping hand.. He was truly one of those people anyone was lucky to know... he will be missed by many people.. so Heres to you mike! R.I.P. Michael Rabetoy... thanks for looking.. Live Free!
