<p>I ran into one of your members in Orlando this past weekend. Best of luck finding a speaker - I will put my feelers out to see if we can help you find anyone. I would love to tune in and get my company's (Shamrock Nation) Facebook following to listen in too if possible when your event happens. We have Shamrock Nation fire shirts available and would love to sell you some at wholesale for your event if you would like. They can end up bringing in a decent amount of money if you price them…</p>

<p>Johnny, we just received this message from a man called Joseph Crowshaw on our Facebook post about your request:</p>

<p>I presume this is a suggestion on someone you can contact as a potential speaker.</p>

<p class="p1">That was Scott McClintock. Great man. He died cycling with his wife, Winnie.</p>

<p>I actually live in Northport, the AOH is in Huntington. I do recall the name McClintock here in town, but if I'm right, he died a while ago. Maybe 10 years or so ago?</p>
