Kevin Smith's Ares Costume to be Auctioned in January

The notice below has been approved by friends of Kevin Smith's family and is also being posted on Creations website for the January Xena Convention:

"We all fondly remember Kevin Smith, a talented and much loved actor on Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, Xena: Warrior Princess, and Young Hercules. His friends and fans all over the world have never forgotten him. On the contrary, since his tragic passing, money has been donated or raised over the years for the Kevin Smith Trust for his three sons. However, his wife Sue would like to mark his 45th birthday next year in a special way by erecting a wonderful memorial stone. To facilitate this, Lucy Lawless has agreed to auction off Kevin's complete costume, worn on many late episodes of Xena and Hercules, at the Creation XenaCon in Burbank, California. This Con runs from January 25-27, 2008. (See www.creationent.com).

Kevin's spectacular leather costume will be provided by Sue Smith with her signed letter of authenticity. This truly is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire one of the finest Hercules/Xena series costumes ever and it will go to a special cause to further honour Kevin's memory for many years to come. More information will follow but please do NOT contact Creation about the costume. They currently have no additional information. So stay tuned."
