RE: Your SENTRI Program Membership #1000191 53 DearTTuann
Thank you for your participation in the SENTRI program. This is to inform you we have received a request to close your SENTRI program membership
because of the following reason:
Participant passed away in Nov/2007 as per husband notification.
As a consequence of this request, your membership privileges and access to any expedited passage lanes has been terminated. If you have not already
done so, please return your SENTRI card to the nearest Enrollment Center.
Please disregard if you were not issued a card.
If at a later time you decide you would like to participate in the SENTRI program again, you must complete a new application and submit any required
fees.
Sincerely,
Supervisor, SENTRI Enrollment Center U.S. Customs and Border Protection
Please NOTE THAT THEY GIVE HER THE OPTION OF RE-APPLYING AT A LATER DATE---what a pleasant thought!Paulina - 1-10-2008 at 06:25 PM
I have a feeling she's laughing out loud big time at that one!

That is so classic Bernie... funny if it weren't so sad.
I can't imagine anyone thinking the government should run our medical system if they send out letters to the dead inviting them to reapply if they
change their mind (about being dead???).
Please send it to the TV stations!DENNIS - 1-10-2008 at 06:33 PM
Some things never die.
Bernie....They treat your beloved wife as the IRS treats a debt. Shame on them for their heartless behaviour.
I must agree with Paulina

Bernie,
Thanks so much for sharing your insights and humor. I really enjoyed your post and the thread that followed it.
I am sure if there is anyway in the hevens Don Jimmy and LuAnn could meet over this one, they would for sure be having a chuckle over the irony; Of
course, that is how it works on planet earth, and for sure in the regard to their/our beloved Baja, over the course of a life time of hassles dealing
with the damable boarder issues.
Ah well, life goes on................Santiago - 1-13-2008 at 09:22 AM
Bernie: Hope you don't mind if I pass this on to a good friend who is a retired ICE employee (Border Patrol and Investigations). He'll get a big
laugh out of this.
