Catching up on overdue b'day wishes - no anniversaries this month that I'm aware of:

a p p y  B i r t h d a y wishes go out to Ronney McKee for Nov. 3rd and Yuvonne Fox Smiley for Nov. 6th!  

Ronney and Yuvonne - We hope you were, or will be, able to find some time to safely celebrate your birthdays with loved ones. 

We know that wasn't possible in Ronney's case and the best possible gift will be to have Connie back home very soon.  

Best wishes for many happy returns!

Paul, like any great record, it's worth replaying over and over.  With the virus now worse than ever and spreading like the California wildfires, we can't let our guard down and become complacent.  I want to be able to see everyone and have many more years of opportunities to do just that!  If we catch the virus, our chances are reduced significantly and we may have long term issues.

Pray, Plan and Proceed . . .  with caution!

I know I am a broken record, but since we cannot predict with certainty who will sail through an infection and who won’t...please...be...very...careful.

Thanks for the update Donnie!  Connie has been in ICU since 11-5.  Praying both will get better soon and Connie can come home.

I texted Ronnie today and he said he was doing ok but Connie is still in ICU but doing better.

Ada Ann & Mario, I'm worried because not hearing back from either of them is not normal.  Ronney may have gotten worse and maybe Connie is still in ICU and can't respond.  Geez, if anyone hears from them or knows anything, please let us know. Thank you!

And yes, Don L. put a lot of work and love into that slide show.  He had it on his PC and set it up at our 45th reunion. I watched it all again and the memories came flooding back.  Our guys were so young, some only 17 when they joined. Many thanks to all of them for their service and many for their long time career service!

Sandy, I texted Ronney this week on Tuesday, and asked him how Connie was doing,..but I have yet to hear back from him. Most of the time that we text each other it doesn't take very long to hear back from him...today it's been a week since I last heard from him, and at that time he was at a Cracker Barrel having lunch.

Don, your veteran tribute is wonderful.  It is such a super way to remember our servicemen and women.  
Sandy, I left a text message for Connie earlier in the week and have not heard back from her.

Tanya, thanks for the FYI but that is not either of our Sammy Smiths!  We have a Sammy R. and a Sammy M. Smith.  The Mrs Sammie Smith you saw is not either of our '66ers wife.

Has anyone talked with or heard from Ronney or Connie??  Is Connie still in hospital?  I hope not, but no word all week.

Sorry, that should have read Mrs Sammie Smith, not Sammie.

Sandy, I just read that Sammie Smith had passed away. He was such a sweetheart. He was listed in the Dallas Morning News today.  R.I.P. Sammie.

Thank y'all for the kind words regarding the vets' slide-show.  I've had a pretty good e-mail response from the vets on my DL as well.  My normal telework schedule and getting as many new photos added as possible, plus a viable platform to present them, have occupied most of my time lately.

So much, that my usual b'day & anniv announcements have fallen behind.  Plus, just as I was posting the link for the slide-show, I noticed Ronney had mentioned he was still struggling with COVID and his wife was in ICU - OMG!  I'm so sorry to hear this news and pray that both will recover and be home together again very soon.
