Don't Forget to Order your Paul Cryan Photos from last Spring!
If you had your photo taken by Diana last spring and haven't ordered photos yet, but would like to do so please order by 10/29 in order to have a portion contributed to the fundraiser for Duffy. Once ordered Diana will ship the photos directly to you. Your photo galleries will still be accessible after that date for ordering, but will no longer benefit the Duffy fundraiser.
If you missed out this past year, Diana will be back at Duffy this coming Spring be on the look out for details come February. For any questions, please reach out to Alison Bush (
