News About Chad Merrill ::

I just got this from Buster a few minutes ago:

Just received a note that Chad Merrill has colon cancer. He is in our thoughts and prayers.

My best wishes go out to Chad and his family also!

Some News From Buster ::

I got this earlier today:

Ran into Buster Rush this am and he really  makes me envious. He  has maintained his same high school weight and all of his hair-w/ no grey. He and his wife now live in Wilmington.
  He asked about the next reunion and wanted to know how could help Jerry and Jim w/ the plans.
  It always is good to see former classmates.
  One note - the class of '63 just had their 50th reunion -which is only the 2nd one they have held- and Pecan, Otis and I bumped into Butch Lilly and he said that they had lost 36 out of their class.  B.

I followed up asking how Butch was doing and Buster told me he ran into Butch at the hospital where his brother-in-law is battling terminal cancer.
