I want to challenge the rest of the class to post your 70th Birthday picture. Here’s mine. Marilea made me do it!
Gary and Karen Tuil stopped by Tulsa on their way back to Alexandria from Texas. We talked about some of you so your ears may be burning! We had a good visit and now they are back home.

Some of you may have heard that Carol Ronning (Beam) needs our prayers as she is fighting the return of C. Those of us who saw Carol at our reunion were encouraged to see her but the struggle continues. We are pulling for you, Carol!!!

September 11th, 17 years ago was a day of great disasters, but 27 years ago was almost a life ending day for me...
Sometimes we get a second chance at life as we survive a bad disease or some close brush with death. I had this experience many years ago back on 9-11-1991. Since this experience I know I better do some good with the many additional years God has given me.
I was working for GE and was going to work on some X-ray equipment in Larado Texas. I lived in Houston so I got on a Continental Airlines flight that left Houston Intercontinental airport at 7am. During the flight I felt a unusual vibration that did not seem to have anything to do with engine speed. We landed and I felt I should mention the vibration to the crew but figured they noticed it and would check it out. The plane would be headed back to Houston in an hour.
I received a call a while after I got to the hospital. A fellow worker knew I was going to Larado and not knowing my exact plans, wanted to make sure I wasn't on the plane that just crashed. It never made it back to Houston.
Through a series of maintenance errors that had occurred the night before, 43 screws that secure the front surface of the tail's horizontal stabilizer had been removed and never replaced. The vibration I was feeling was the stabilizer moving up and down. By the time of the second and last decent of this plane, this part had weakened and broke off causing the plane to crash.
