  1. Hi Meagan,
    I am setting up a site for Bob Lynch’s boxing foundation. I came across a couple of great shots you took of Bob coaching over there at UW. I’d like to use 2 of them on his site.

    I want to use part of 0352 for the Header shot and 0375 for his bio page.

    May we have your permission with attribution and links to your sites? You can see what I wrote on Bob’s page.

    The rest of the site is password protected until the foundation’s board approves it, but I left Bob’s page public for you to see.

    I wrote you at your email address. Sorry to be a bother but I’d like the site up for the fights this weekend.

    Thanks, Paul Sullivan
