I just received word from Charles's wife Tami that Charles's surgery went well and was a success. He had a quadruple bypass this morning and is doing well. She said that he is talking a little. I told her we would continue to lift him up in prayer and ask for a speedy recovery. He asked that I pass this info on to you guys and gals. I'm looking forward to seeing him in two weeks when we will be passing thru Pensacola. I have a gift tree for him. "gene"

I don't know Charles, but I'm glad he has done well after serious surgery. Hope to see him on the forums soon. Pensacola is a great place, I have spent some time there. Sending a prayer and best wishes to you and your family Charles.

Great news from Charles. I visited with him and his wife Tami and he is looking great. In fact he felt well enough to give me a short walking tour of his grounds which are expansive. It was great seeing him up and about and in great spirits. He still has some healing to go but is doing great. He has quite a layout, it's just too bad that last winter was so hard on him and then the followup flood that put some water in his house. He says hi, and will be joining us shortly. "gene"
