CHAPLAIN's CORNER
REV DOCTOR RALEIGH WATSON
Since our last column:
Paul Campbell has recovered well from his by-pass surgery and was able to attend the October meeting!!. Good job, Paul.
Glen Ramsburg and his wife Dorras, have recovered from the virus and he tells me he is feeling quite well. However, Dorras is now dealing with a blood clot in a leg.
Isaac Lutrell was taken to urgent care and then two days later, to the hospital for what turned out to be pneumonia, and complicated by a posi-tive Corona virus test. As I write this column, he is being discharged and on his way home.
Let us be careful, troops!! These experiences of a couple of our comrades indicates that this virus is a long way from being over. Do not be lulled into becoming careless.
Paul Bombardier still faces tests and treatment, and we wish him the best.
Ralph Martin is at "The Willows". No visitors are allowed, not even family. You may check on him through his wife, Norma, at the home number 540-877-2819

Charles Boyce is at the VA hospital in Martinsburg, WV. His room number is 5th floor, Ward B, room 340. You may call him at 304-263-0811, Ext 2952.
I ask that you keep these and the following in your prayers: Millard Pippin, Leonard Laconia, Ernest Hill, and Raymond Carter.
Remember: We are still seeking a person to take the Chaplain/member's Service committee chairman's position. Please consider it!!.
FROM THE SECRETARY's DESK
