From Carl:

Please stop by the table tonight and pick up some Christmas show tickets to sell.  We need to sell at least 400.  That's about 4 or 5 per member.

Only one person has not yet paid for his Fall contest registration.
Thanks,
Carl Pinard

Please remember our “injured reserves” with your cards, calls and prayers.

Jim Jorgenson reports that his wife Romana has an open sore that refuses to heal.  The doctors have decided that some surgery will be necessary to help it heal.  The surgery is scheduled for November 18 if her sodium level is found to be acceptable in her pre-op exam.  Joe Bifulk is doing well and planning to come to practice tonight.  He’s using a crutch but transitioning to a cane.  Loren Wuttke had to cancel a weeks’ Chemo treatment because of low white cell count.  Although he tells me he lacks stamina he sounded good on the phone.  Shirley Retter wife of Glenn tells me that she is doing well.  She has to be careful about people contact as she rebuilds her immunity but the doctor says she is ahead of schedule.  Also remember Paul Wigley in your thoughts and prayers.

Please keep me informed about our sick and ailing members.
