Fred, I got that as "raise" about 5 years ago. It was left over from the Steel Guitar Hall of Fame fundraising show we had there. Lynn Owsley brought it in for the show and then "abandoned" it.

Hi Don and Jack Anna and I will not be coming to Florida. My younger Sister has turned for the worst and we will have to stay at home and wait for the phone call and then go up to Rhode Island to her Funeral. I just hope God does not let her suffer any more. She had a stroke and it took them 6 months to find this out and now they operated on her for a tumor on one of her lungs and it was Cancer and it has now spread in her body.She just turned 73 December 29TH.

Keep Catfish Johnny in your prayers. He is in the Hospital with apparent pneumonia. Got this from Pat, his wife, about an hour ago:

hey everyone, this is Pat. Wanted to let everyone in his address book to know that he is in the hospital with pneumonia. Thought he was getting the flu again, so he stayed home from the restaurant on Friday. Friday night when I got home he was still in bed, just said he didn't feel good, was a little feverish, but in bed for a few days with the flu is normal for Johnny. Got up Saturday morning, he was burning up with a fever, and was completely incoherant. He could not move, could not speak. I thought he had had a stroke. Called 911. Lots of IV fluids, lots of antibiotics and medication to boost his adrenal system. He is a little better today, but VERY weak. So, healing prayers for him, please. I came home early from hospital today, chills, fever, achy all over,he laid in the bed sick and I laid in the recliner sick in his room - lol. Lesli will go back up tonight and check on him - I am going to bed, got to kick this so I can take care of him when he comes home. Love, pat

Report, last night, is that Catfish Johnny is doing better and may be out in a day or two. The "26 year old" nurses in the hospital perked him right up :lol:
