Place: Fair Park Comments: Great day to be at the Fair. Temp 70's sunshine and a Fletcher's corn dog. Life is good.
Place: McKinney, TX Comments: Don, my condolences to you and your family on the passing of your brother. Prayers for you.
Place: DS Comments: Sent an email to Mike the evening before his surgery. I don't know if he received it because it was not sent on my usual email. Don, so sorry to hear about your brother Doug. My prayers are with you and your family.
Place: Richardson Comments: The other day I asked you to send em notes to Mike Dunn as he is in very poor health & in hospital for heart surgery. They did a 2nd surgery yesterday to stop internal bleeding. Sammy sent him a note & Angie replied. Below is her response to Sammy. Prayers are needed for two of our SOC '66 friends, Don Lincoln & Mike Dunn. From: Mike Dunn <jmdaed@yahoo.com> Sammy, this is Angie, Mike's wife and I thought I would take this time to respond to you. Mike is still out of it and probably will be for a while yet! They had to go in a second time and repair the heart valve they worked in a few days ago, as well as patching a tear in his Aorta which ended up being about 2 centimeters long. With the condition of his heart as well as the 2 strokes he has had the Dr's were truly afraid of excessive bleeding to the point that they would not be able to stop it! He did have a lot of excessive bleeding but he is resting now.
Thanks to all of you folks for the thoughts and prayers and we will try to keep you updated!
Angie Dunn

Place: 66erville Comments: Don, I am so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Place: Lago Vista, TX Comments: My brother, Warren Douglas (‘Doug’) Lincoln, SOC '68, passed away at his home in Salado, TX, shortly after midnight today. He'd been battling cancer for over 6 years. I'll post an obituary link when available. - Don
Place: Coppell Comments: I just emailed Mike. Thanks for sharing Sandy.
Place: Update on Mike Dunn Comments: As most of you know Mike Dunn has had heart trouble for several yrs. He also had a stroke and has been slow to recover. He sent me an Em from his hospital rm on 10-2 saying he was having heart surgery in the mrng & wd be in ICU for awhile. He was moved to a rm on 10-11. Been t/w him via Em. As you can imagine, it's lonely & cold in the hospital. He has a laptop at his bedside & sd he wd really love hearing from old SOC friends!! Unfortunately he is now bleeding internally & they just told him they wd go back in at 6:00am tmo to see why he's bleeding & repair it. If you can, send him an Em as small kindnesses go along way when you are in a hospital bed. Here's his Em. jmdaed@yahoo.com He could certainly use a few prayers as well. Thank you!
Place: Cypress springs Comments: Just got caught up on GB.....you know Jack I am sure km is going to catch up with you for your remarks about trading her!!! You know that she does not have as good a sense of humor as I do! Lol
Place: Richardson Comments: After nearly 13 yrs we had forgot how much work it was to do a successful garage sale! Our Neighborhood Sale was Fri & Sat. We had everything on the 3 big 6ft tables & started carting them out the front door to the curb at 7:15am. The 1st day went pretty well, but it was Fri & lots of people work. We were out there from 7:15 until 2:00pm. On Sat we did the same thing but people starting showing up as we were bringing out the tables!! We stayed out until 1:30. Good Grief it was humid Sat!! Felt like I was in a sauna! No big ticket items, all small household & Ofc stuff from $2 up to $15. Both days only netted us $251.50, but lots of stuff we don't have to store in the closet anymore! We got some good rain late yesterday, started about 4:45pm. Weatherman says more scattered showers for next 3 days. Hope they're right! And yes, . . . I can't sing, but I'll hum it, "The eyes of Texas are upon you .... "
Place: McKinney, TX Comments: SNL - our addition had a community garage sale yesterday. Made about $50 in 4 hrs. so we were happy. Did sell Rudy's old MAC teal green desktop from the 90s for $5. We were happy someone took it off our hands. One thing I noticed here as compared to Duncanville, the people don't negotiate from $1 item to asking if I'll take $.50. We closed up shop about 12:30 pm and in the process met some nice neighbors. If anyone is interested, we do have a custom made small round conference table (more the size of a game table) with 4 very comfortable arm chairs. The table top is solid birds eye maple (light wood) and weighs a ton. Rudy had it when he owned the advertising company in the 90s - 2001. Excellent condition - $150.00. We asked a consignment store if they would sell it and said that the wood was too light that the style today is more towards dark wood.
