Listees,
Most of you know Phil Hall for the custom roadster he is building or for
his tales of 180's in his flat dash roadster. I had an opportunity to
accept
Phil and Rhonda's hospitality for a night a few years back when traveling
to
Alabama. At that time they struck me as two down to earth caring people.
Since then I have only had those feelings strengthened. Now you have all
read the story below about Joe and Jeannine Norman and their son Drew. As
requested, they will be in my prayers. But I want to do a bit more. My
check will go in the mail today. It won't be for much because I'm
currently
unemployed, but hopefully it will be joined by others. The check will be
made out to Phil, for him and Rhonda to use to take care of Drew or to pass
along to Joe and Jeannine to help cover the expensive and long recovery
from
sever burns. I know Phil and Rohonda will make the best use of it. I hope
the post man is busy in a few days with deliverys to the Hall residence.
Sorry about the OT,
Paul
OROC
