Those who have ordered Reunion shirts has been put on hold.
Vicki’s brother is in bad shape in a ICU at a local good hospital.
So we have some issues to attend to for some time.
It is not COVID related, just a bad smoking and other things life style.

Don’t worry, we will get the shirts out sometime.

Been up all night, Vicki’s brother passed away at 62 years old early this morning.
We are still contacting people to let them know.

If you're smart enough to take it apart, you darn well better be smart enough to put it back together.

Don and Vicki, so sorry to hear the news. I know what you are going through and you have my thoughts and prayers. He was way too young.
Take all the time you both need to grieve, shirts can wait. Anything the group can do let us know.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers!
We met today with the local funeral home and made plans for the Country Calibration of Life.
Lee was a life long motor head and the services will be held at his shop October 2nd.
Big country feed will follow and I will be the main cook.

I may get to the shirts next week?
Don

Oh, Vicki is taking it in stride. She is a tough gal!
