My name is Charlie Van Riper.

I'm a graduate from Livonia Franklin High School, class of 1969.

Livonia, MI

I recently sponsored a Franklin Class Memorial/reunion for former classmates.

I provided a large poster of 120 former classmates that have passed away since our graduation.

The event was held at a local restaurant. The event featured the poster board along with a pizza, mostaccioli, and salad buffet.

Admission to pay for the restaurant room and catering was $20 a person based on a 40-person attendance.

Our memorial reunion only attracted 14 classmates.

We all enjoyed ourselves, but the numbers were short to equal the amount necessary for 40 people attending. I paid an additional $550 myself to pay for the bill.

I'm asking only to be compensated the $550 that I paid to make the bill right.

Thank you.
