Happy Birthday, Russ.
It sure was good seeing you and Jan last year.  Will have to do it again someday.

Thanks to all...and a special Happy Birthday wish to our friend Hank.
Hank, I  promise to call next week! Mama Bear Jan has "finally" got her Neuro Surgery scheduled  and I  will have a little more time...
Thanks to all those who have written and called. Our hopes are high.

It's the many things we don't do that totally sets us apart.
