    Default SPACETRUCKER

    HI all,

    John, aka spactrucker, had a heart attack upon returning from SITR. He is in LA at the VA Hospital. His prognosis is unclear at the moment but feels his riding days are over. He and I rode from Eureka, Ca to Newport, Or. on Thursday after SITR. I stayed in Newport and he continued on to his home. We had a nice lunch in Gold Bach, Or and when I left him in Newport, he seemed fine. I am in contact with his family and will keep you posted as I learn how hes doing. John is a good friend and a man of extreme generosity to anyone in need of help. Please keep him in your heart and prayers. I am not involved in any way with the sale of his RT.

    Pray for recovery,

    John

    My wife and I have already been blessed with his generosity and his kindness. We will continue to pray for him, his recovery, and his family.
    If there is anything my wife and I can do for him and the family, please feel free to contact us. Hopefully, he will be able to have visitors in the
    near future and I can personally tell him what an impact he has had on other's lives.

    I hope he is wrong about the riding. Lots of people have had heart problems and/or surgery, and returned to ride again. Our prayers continue...

    Identify what you have control over and find peace with what you don't.

    John... I hope all goes well for you and your family! Each of you are in my prayers! Riding with you down to eureka and the trips we took while there were priceless and all because you are a great leader and knew the area.

    Take Care and I will be in touch my friend!
