I just read the post on the misc. forum regarding the passing of Ollie Schaefers' brother. It's always hard to lose a loved one, and more so near the holidays. My prayers are with the Schaefer family.

I, personally have a lot to be thankful for this holiday season. As some of you knew, my wife Audrey underwent major open heart surgery two days before thanksgiving, and I'm delighted to report that She is doing great now. We are not out of the woods yet but things are looking really good.

This Christmas is the best I've ever had and I thank the Good Lord for letting me spend it with "serial number 1". After 42 years together, I don't know where I'd find another trainer!

So I'd like to wish you all a Merry Christmas, and pray that your Christmas will be as good as mine. God Bless you all.
