From Doc:

Please sign up for the September 18 performance at my church (St. Joseph) in Hopkins.  We need 30 dedicated singers with an adequate balance of parts.    Thanks.

Chord-Inator deadline is Thursday, July 29.  Please be on time with your copy so I won't have to work Monday night, August 2.  Thanks again.

Please commit to the golf outing on Saturday, September 11, noon at Dwan Golf Club in Bloomington.  There will be a sign-up sheet.  Thanks even again.

Romana Jorgenson, Jim’s wife has returned home after a week of tests in the hospital.  Unfortunately, they haven’t solved her abdominal problem and she continues to experience pain.  Gary Jacobson is doing well in spite of still carrying a large kidney stone which required some strong pain killers at first.  He plans on being at practice Tuesday night.  He and the doctor will be deciding on a course of action to deal with the stone.  Linda Speidel, Dave’s wife had a very successful knee replacement on June 24th and went home three days later.  Dave is helping her through her recovery at home.  Dick Plaisted‘s son Glen tells me that Dick has been gradually improving, however, he still needs some assistance for a while yet so he’s relocating to an assisted living place called “Suite Living” in Blaine.

Please keep me informed about our sick and ailing members and remember them with your cards, calls and prayers.
