Just got off the phone with Larry he sounded good and his spirits were good also. The surgery is tomorrow morning and the doctors told him there should be no problems other that 8 weeks of recovery time. I think he was more worried about the 8 weeks recovery than the surgery. If I hear any thing else I will be sure to let everyone know

Lynda and I got home earlier this evening.We spent the afternoon with Larry,Ruth and Terry his son.We had a great time laughing with everyone and especially Larry's situations he has got his wife into in the past.Next time you see Larry ask him about the time he wanted Ruth to hold something while he welded it.He didn't know she was barefoot! All in all we had fun but when it came time to come home you could see in his eyes he is worried and I don't blame him.Ruth said she will let me know tomorrow how things went and I'll keep you posted

Larry, you are one of the good guys that helped myself and Bob Pettigrew get into this hobby in the late 80's. Good luck, sure you will be fine and will be watching out for that smile at the next big gas meet. Jill and mine prayers are with you. Jill and Rob Vest

Just got off the phone with Ruth,he is out of surgery and back in ICU.The Doctors said everything went well and all his vitals are good.I'm sure he will be watched closely for a few days and when he can have visitors we will go see our friend again.
Very relieved his friends

Just got off the phone with Ruth,they are trying to get Larry awake and get his heart beating on it's own.His vitals are still fine.Keep your fingers crossed - come-on buddy wake up.They said it may be because of his age that it's taking awhile.Ruth has seen this site as I showed her in the hospital the other day and she would like to thank everyone that has said something very nice about and for Larry
keep him in your thoughts

Just talked with Ruth again and Larry is awake and his heart is beating on it's own (what a relief).He is in a lot of pain but when he woke up he knew who everybody was and squeezed Ruth's hand.
Lynda and I are extremely relieved.
