Back into the shop
« on: June 05, 2007, 08:27:09 PM »
Sunday Ted Winterman and I went flying. It was windy but I still put up a few. I have started to clean the shop out for building again. Most of my work projects are now under control. The shirts are being printed and should be ready for delivery next week. Sorry for all the delays. My mother is having a hard time and my father has found you in a few months he will be blind. Some kind of retina disease. I have no idea what I am going to do. I keep plugging along hoping all of you  understand. I will get caught up its just going to take some time. sorry for the delays.

Board goes on paid for. Drawings go on as long as funds last...

Bob,

Good to hear you had an opportunity to fly with Ted. 

Sorry to hear about your parents, it is something we all have to face sooner or later.

Let me know if you can get away to fly this weekend (June 10th) and I'll try and meet you out at Buder.

Steve
Thanks,

Bob,
You have your hands full, and our prayers are with you and your mother and father.

Glad you got out with Ted.. there are time that understandably you need the break from the real world. Linda and I always enjoyed Ted's company.

It is at times like this that all of us realize how helpless we are. May it be a small comfort to know that you have many friends that would do anything the could to help you through this. We miss you but we also know that you are doing the right thing.

Hi Bob,
"Been there, done that" hardly seems like serious response to your situation even though it's true.  The road seems hard, and it is, but it's one we all have to travel sooner or later.  Our parents are one of the most va;uable relationships we have, with the children being the other.  Scripture tells us to "honor our father and mother" and that's where you are and I suspect have been all your life.  God will honor and bless you for it even though you do it out of love and respect and not for reward.
With your permission I'd like to put your folks and you on the FCM prayer chain that goes out nationwide.  Just let me know if you'd like this by emailing me at wilhint@henry-net.com
Blessings,
Will

Robert,

I completely understand. My Dad suffers from macular degeneration and is slowly losing his eyesight. Tough gig. I get the guilt-mobile from my Mom when I call. Please come see him before he's blind. They live in Oklahoma and me in Seattle. Don't make the trip often enough. Hope to see them this Fall. He's a cool, old guy and it pains me to hear he is losing his sight. I sympathize strongly.

You have my sympathy and thoughts.
