<DIV><FONT face=Arial>As many of you know my wife Patty is undergoing her sixth
bout with Cancer. She is an avid rail traveler and has worked with many
rail events in the mid-Ohio Valley. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>A scenic railroad is sponsoring a Ride for the cure with
all proceeds going to the American Cancer Society. This is being run
this August. If possible I ask that you consider attending this
event. The fact that a scenic railroad is doing this may blind my site a
little because Patty and I do love train travel so much. That aside,
I am praying that a cure for all forms of Cancer will come someday
even if it will not be in time for my wife. NO ONE deserves to go through
the hell that she has gone through and is now again going through.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I am posting the information on this event below for your
view and hope that if you can't attend you will consider donating to this
cause. I realize the calls on your purse are heavy as they are on each of
us. It is a call that I make on you that I would never do unless I
believed that all things are possible with God. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>The Hocking Valley Scenic is the former C&O line
running out of Columbus to Nelsonville, O. This line was part of the
Hocking Valley Railroad which was purchased by the C&O railroad in the
1920's ( I think) </FONT></DIV>
