[Congressman Billybob]

My late, great Uncle Charlie (Chas. A. Guy of Lubbock, Texas) traveled the same road you did. He joined Bill W's club when he was about 35. He was still a member when he died, 60 years later. And, he paid his dues to those who had helped him, by sponsoring many, many others.

My brother, on the other hand, never learned and never got around the corner. He died of his alcoholism, leaving a trail of death and destruction behind him.

Because of my family experiences, I have deep respect for what you have done, and how difficult it was to do.

Happy Thanksgiving,

John / Billybob
