Please take a moment and add Ron Scobie to your prayers as he had surgery to fix a problem and is having a few complications as we speak.
For those of you that know Ron, You know he hates to stand still for too long and I think that the most is getting the best of him right now. As a person who is only happy when I've got 10 projects going myself, I can see how anything that takes me out of my normal rhythm would drive me crazy!
Please take time for sending a good prayer his way for a speedy recovery as there is a whole lot of knowledge and friendship that we don't want to lose anytime soon!!
I will probably get a hard time from Ron for posting this as he kind of keeps his privates to himself but He's one of us in this hobby and prayers are needed.

Mike,
Thanks for the notice. I have dealt with Ron for several years and he has been my go to guy for a number of pump projects. Every time I order something he would send it out with an invoice, never asked for payment first and has supplied parts that no one else has.
He will be in my prayers and whishes for a speedy and full recovery.

My Ron Scoobie story is about the time I was down from Winnipeg many years ago to buy a few pumps from him. I had taken my 10 year old daughter with me for the trip. We got talking to him about how we had to get home so my daughter could finish her project on different rock types. I can't remember the exact reason, I think he had a geological background, but he had many rare rocks, and stones and gave her a bunch of them for her project with an explanation about each one. She got an excellent mark because of it. Thanks very much Ron, get well soon. Vic Robinson Winnipeg

Ron has always been a great boon to our hobby and as Mike said,is always talking about slowing down but never does/will. I always enjoy talking to him, he has always been nothing but gracious and helpful to me. Hope you get back on your feet soon, Ron....Gary
