Mornin' to the Foxhole. Terrific presentationa as is the norm.

Hope y'all don't mind, but I'm asking for prayers for my father-in-law, George. He suffered a stroke yesterday. By nightfall, he had regained the ability to speak, though slurred and also regained feeling in his right side.

George is a WWII vet who served aboard the USS Tinosa, a submarine. He is also a plumber who forgot to retire. He's 84 years old and competes like a 30 or 40 year old. He has participated in the Bloomsday Race (12K) yearly and frequently plays racquet-ball with his son. He was working on a plumbing job when the incident occurred and rushed to the hospital.

He had planned to drive down here to central CA next week from Spokane. Mrs. d will be traveling to Spokane tomorrow. Prayers for George and the family, please

Thanks, FRiends. dd
