I received a phone call last night from Jim Cannon. Gil had a mid brain stroke tuesday. Physically he is pretty good. He is able to walk and talk. Just a little numbness on the side of his face. Cognitively not as good. His memory is messed up .The doctors feel this should improve. He will be in rehab for the next few weeks though. I will keep you posted on his progress. I will also get an address for Gil if any one would lie to send a card.

Keep the prayers going. Gil is one of the finest men I have ever met.

He can talk and the phone number is 913/491-2463
