Many thanks to you guys and gals who sent me get-well cards, fetters, and phone calls when you heard of my first stay in the hospital. I had a second stay in May and must return therein August for surgery that, together with radiation and chemothera- py treatments, will hopefully take care of my problems.
Congratulations to Mary and Bob Engelman on their second great-grandson, Carson William Rhoads, whose grandfather was a '6l. That makes three great-grandchildren and 18 grandchildren. Sounds tops to me—can anyone beat that?
