Coast-to-Coast Dark Ages Parties. Coast-to-Coast USAFA 1975 Dark Ages Parties simultaneously took place Saturday, February 16th at 3 locations: Washington DC, Colorado Springs, and Seattle. Jim Carlson sent the volunteered DC organizers Al Bready and Chris Soto a list of 117 '75ers in "Greater DC Metro Area" or "Count-me-as-in-DC-too." The DC Group has set the bar. Last year, Don Byers flew out from California to attend, and so did Sam Ryals from Dayton. That's class dedication! Gil Braun has been to all 7 of these events. Al changed the original date and was given 6 tours by Jim C. but exercised his option to grant amnesty. DCers convened at Arnold Suite at Bolling AFB Officers Club. The scribe noticed 22 classmates on the preliminary list. (DC Area DAP Gallery Below)
The C Springs DAP, organized by Bruce Mitchell, commenced with Brunch at Eisenhower Golf Course and followed with the B Ball game against the Wyoming Cowboys. The preliminary list included Greg Black, Jim Burling, Lee Colburn, Randy Davis, Jim Dill, Brian Duffy, Dick Dye (Denise), Bruce Fritzsche, John Gaughan (Becky), Scott Hente (Lynn), Bruce Mitchell (Janice ), Phil Pearce (Chris), Bentley Rayburn (Debi), Gary Shugart, Kent Traylor, (Carole), Mark Volcheff (Mary). Since so many of us were wearing our jerseys, Bruce wondered "If the group gets arrested for wearing counterfeit NCAA-logo sports apparel, (first local group function at USAFA in the new '75 jerseys) can we use the class fund for bail money?" Jim Burling sent photos and added it was a beautiful day and they were even playing golf at USAFA that day! We had 25 classmates and spouses attend our Italian DAP Luncheon followed by the AFA-Wyoming basketball game. The Falcons came away winners, 72-66, after a slow start. It must have been 100th Night the night before! (it was!). As you can see by the photos, many of us wore our class football jerseys. They were a hit at the game and I received many compliments. A 72 grad asked for the manufacturer, so I will hook him up with Ben . . . maybe more business for him! After viewing the photos, John Charlton inquired: Hey Burr.....how come all you guys out west look so much older and grayer than the 75'ers here in the east????
With an entire 30 hours of notice, Paul Lotakis, our Northwest POC, found Mike Buckley, Chris Glaeser and yours truly Paul Kent for a rendezvous at the Spitfire Grill. Mike Garrett and Blair Thisted “almost” made it. The Puget Sound best-alivers even convinced their wives to attend. Paul L noted "A conference call was made to the DC Area 75ers, but due to the three hour time zone change (read "head start"), they were unintelligible."
After the success of the DC DAP, Duane Jones rented a pavilion on the Bolling AFB waterfront for a 7 June 2008 '75 get together. 33 short years after pinning on our 2nd Lt bars.
Flashbacks. From Colt Mefford: So . . . I'm walkin' across the parking lot yesterday, and suddenly have an Academy flashback . . . (Over thirty (30) years out, and I still get 'em). Do you guys get these? – circumstances that generate "flashbacks"? In this case (one of many), for me, it's cold, snowy weather, and the smell of diesel exhaust. We spent so much time being dragged back and forth in those buses . . . waiting in line . . . the constant smell . . .Every time I smell diesel in the winter, I think of the Zoo . . .Jim C responds: The same thing happens to me whenever I smell canvas material in the hot sun. No matter where in the world I happen to be, if I pass by tent material or heavy canvas that's been sitting out in the sun, it instantly takes me back to Jack's Valley during BCT or SERE. Especially the compound in SERE, sitting in those tents while they baked – breathing in the dust kicked up by shuffling fellow 'piggie war criminals' . . . I still have dreams related to being back at the Academy as a cadet, every 18 months or so . . . (in one recurring dream, our class has been recalled to re-do senior year academic classes and/or military training).
From RC Park: A whistle and door-slam does it for me. The flashbacks are almost a good thing now. After the initial shock, there is the "Ha Ha, not anymore!" feeling.
From Paul Narzinski: About those "Flashbacks/Nightmares" . . . I successfully got rid of them for about 20 years until . . . YOU GOT ME RE-CONNECTED again with USAFA. Curses on you Jim, Curses! I have 3 that are reccurring: 1. I'm wandering the dorm halls looking for my squadron and room, neither of which I know (guess the senior shuffle did a number on my psyche); 2. I don't know if its an "M" or "T" day and what classes I need to go to; 3. I'm face to face with the Soccer Coach ready to throw punches, arguing he needs to play to win and not field his pretty boys who lose (the coach fielded mostly underclassmen). The coach had kicked 75ers Wojcicki & O'Shea off the team before the season started; Bentley went military; Zerambo got shafted and hung up the spikes; Shine & Narzinski were "invited to leave" the team for disagreeing with the coach. Jack took him up – I stayed and continued to argue and was consequently made to ride the bench halfway through the season for much of the rest of that season. Funny, but my Junior Year I made All-League – and invited, with Lenny Salvemini, to try out for the 1976 Olympic Soccer Team (he made it). My Senior year, I was made to ride the bench. Our Senior year was the first year, ever, USAFA had a losing soccer season. What a coach . . . what a legacy. The first two nightmares I wake up in a sweat, the third one I wake up angry (once almost hit my lovely wife). Guess now it will take another 20 years to get rid of these . . . maybe I should start therapy?!
Classmate Updates and Stories. From Bill Lyerly: As my current PhD program in "Disaster Management" is located within the Tulane Payson Center for International Development, I am now officially a doctoral candidate in the Tulane School of Law. Thus, like my ol' buddy Jim Carlson who has gone there before me – I am now officially "in Law School" . . . Go figure . . .
From Jim Dearien: The '75 jersey was the hit of our Christmas! I'm here in the photo with my wife Julie, and daughters Jessie (senior at TCU) and Jaclyn (freshman at CSU). Thanks to all who made the '75 jersey happen. I know that all of the other classes are going to be very jealous when they find out. I suggest a program to get them a jersey, with the caveat that a SMALL increase in the price to be deposited to the Class of '75 Fund . . . let's see if we can get all of the other classes to make our class gift the largest ever. :-)
From Roy Rice to Terry Young: . . . I tried to order a '75 Jersey with the text "T. Young Wanna-Be" embroidered on the back. Terry responds: Interesting . . . mine cost $50 more because of my extra lettering – "when I grow up I want to be just like Roy Rice – smart, a good leader, etc" . . . but ran out of room.
From Chip Kerby: Subject: AF v. California. Here's a couple of pix of the '75ers who attended the game in DC last week. Despite the loss, the place was packed and the '75 jerseys sported by Beadling and Kerby were the envy of all other attendees!
From Bill Murray: Terry Young spent a few days with us. Terry played defensive tackle next to me back in the day. If you are interested, here are some photos of the Armed Forces Bowl and a few classmates.
Terry and I called Coach Kendall and he wasn't doing good with his broken hip . . refused to do his re-hab. So Terry drove up to Broken Arrow, OK to see him and his family.
Terry Symens-Bucher (CS-16 Chickenhawks) went into the Marine Corps upon graduation. He had a quite interesting path that included seminary and law school, before working in San Francisco getting deadbeat dads to pay their due.
From Paul Narzinski: The 4th Navy man in our class was my roomie – Ed McCollum. [no email – one of our MIAs]. Ed went Navy Intel as I recall. He got caught up in Vandy's decision to limit our post-graduation choices from the 100 jobs possible down to the 6 (or so) he felt were suitable for our class. Ed wanted to go Intel (I wanted weather) and obviously neither of us got our wishes. Ed commissioned directly into the Navy – a good ol' Texas boy who never sailed the oceans . . . We both got kicked out of our Squadrons senior year (he from CS-16, I from CS-11) and decided to share our miseries together as roomies. We survived because of some good heads up in CS-18 and a reasonable (and new) Major AOC whose favorite patch on his fight suit said: "F*** Jane Fonda". Now there was an officer worth dying for!
From Dale Meyerrose: I think Felix Greider went to the French Academy on an exchange program. I didn't get this recollection from school but in conversations with his wife in 1981 as she taught birthing classes that Linda and I attended at Scott AFB. Another for your trivia crusade: How many '75ers graduated without getting a demerit or walking a tour in all four years? From Tom Darner: Kevin Burns went to the French Academy, that I know. We along with Perry Lamy and Dan McCorry were in the same Test Pilot School Class. Kevin is now a GS at Eglin AFB.
From Kenneth Hodge: Three of us went to the French Academy Exchange Program: Randy Joslin, Kevin Burns, and myself (Ken Hodge). Randy J confirms: Three of us went. Felix Greider was a French speaker, as I recall, but he did not do the exchange. From Kevin Burns: Concur with Ken. Capt Rowe, I remember. Felix I don't . . . but it probably wouldn't have been real hard to be OTF for the entire semester attending EdA.
From Duane Jones : I just found a roll of 35 mm negatives from pictures I took during a dining-in when we were firsties. After 34 years, it's pretty fascinating to look at. From Jim: Like Duane, get out those old photos the rest of you guys and start scanning. We need to collect them for Bill Estelle before the next reunion!
Dave Clough, after reading "the Daily Orders": I guess this qualifies me as "Brown Shoe". I still get a little startle response when I see things like "Sexual Risk Management II" or "Women's Basketball" on the Daily Orders. Not a bad change, just so different from our experience back "in the day". The menu hasn't changed much. These have also changed from our experience: DAYS SINCE LAST CADET ALCOHOL INCIDENT: 10 (for '75, this would be in hours, not days).
From Stan Schoener: Got some good news a couple of weeks ago – my daughter, who is a senior at USC (AFROTC), has been accepted to UNR (Reno) med school. This is her 2nd choice for med school. She will interview with her 1st choice (Bethesda) this coming week. No matter how the interview goes, it's not a bad option to settle for your 2nd choice school. I moved over the Xmas holidays. The 3rd big news item isn't so good. Went thru cancer surgery (bladder) a week ago. Had to be the scariest couple of weeks leading up to the surgery – wondering what the doc will find, and how much he can get out. The bad news is that it was the "C" word – but the good news is that he thinks he got everything out, and didn't see any residuals on the bladder walls. I go in for a follow-up 'scope' in March to ensure nothing is coming back. Mike Narkiewicz I know understands how scary this is, and I am sure there are others out there. Word of wisdom - if you pee even a little bit of blood, see your doctor right away. I am being very optimistic, and am much more cheerful than I was a week ago.
Our very own Alan G. Peck, CS-11 (also known as "Disco") makes his third star!!!!!
From Harry Mathis: Miracles still happen. Against many odds, the Air Force has decided to promote me to O-6 (see below). With so many young thoroughbreds in the race I was pretty sure this old plow-horse was headed for the barn (thought I could even smell the hay :-), but God and the AF had other plans. I'm number two on the list, but also have an assignment pending, so not sure when or where pin-on will be.
Duane Jones made MG!
From Chuck Schmitz: I’m off to Iraq, Victory Base, in May. Still in uniform, Ohio ANG. I have a 16 person Intel shop. I’m working an Intel job, 179 days boots on the ground. Got to use some of that Jacks Valley training during pre-deployment work-up!
From Jeff Chappell: Just saw a well-done documentary called "Fighting for Life," about military medical operations in Iraq and the school at USUHS. Saw two doctors I have seen here at BAMC (Rhonda Cornum, Gulf War 1 POW and urologist/flight surgeon, and Tom Kolkebeck) and our very own Charlie Beadling. The San Antonio Express-News described it accurately, I think, as a modern-day MASH (my favorite show of all time: MASH 4077, Best Care Anywhere). #3 son Ben is about to enter the Army :( as a medical tech and he was inspired by the show. It had some amazing stories of recovery, above and beyond performances by people "just doing their jobs" in real life, and I recommend it to all our classmates and their families. It renewed my appreciation for our classmates and others (including my wife:) in medical professions. Good to see you, Charlie! Thank you and keep up the great work!
From Jim C: The Air Force Academy Association of Washington DC (AFASW) conducted their annual USAFA Founders Day reception (to commemorate USAFA's establishment) at Maggiano's in Tyson's Corner, VA on Sunday, April 6. It was a great dinner with great company (with 7 members of the class of '75 present). '75ers in attendance: Charlie Bergman, Jim Carlson, Mark Beesley, Bill Lyerly, Charlie Beadling, Scott Smith, and Phil Benjamin. I look forward to this event almost as much as to our annual Dark Ages Party! Every once in awhile, I have the distinct pleasure of meeting a classmate for the FIRST TIME – even after almost 37 years . . . Last night was the first time that Charlie Bergman and I ever met (as far as either one of us knows). And wouldn't you know it, anyone listening to us talk might have thought we'd been friends forever. What a great bunch of classmates to be associated with. What a class! Best Alive! Charlie is the Executive Director of NGATS (Next Generation Air Transportation System) in DC – which is transforming America's Air Traffic Control System. And he lives just west of Dulles, near Leesburg I think – which oddly enough is in my neck of the woods in Sterling. Small world. The trio-shot of Beesley, Lyerly, and Beadling looks like a singing barbershop quarter (minus one), but I just caught them off guard. Of course, now they hate me. You guys who weren't there missed a great time – we were the loudest, happiest 2 tables in that room!
From Scott Hente concerning his prostate cancer: For all of you who sent words of thoughts and prayers, I can't begin to express how much they all meant. It just confirms that the best group of guys that I know are ones that I spent four years with in the early 70's. Surgery went well, and although we have to wait to get back pathology reports, the Doc was very confident that the cancer was contained in the prostate. He let me go home today so my main goals for the next couple of weeks are to heal up and drive Lyn crazy. I know Bill Murray shared some of his thoughts last year after he went through the same thing and I would echo his thoughts. And by all means, if you haven't been screened for a while, make an appointment with your Doctor today. The big thing with Prostate Cancer is to catch it early. Thanks again guys - you're the greatest.
From Dr. David Clough: Leon will be able to correct or expand upon this if I get anything wrong. The most important part of prostate cancer screening is that your physician has to keep his (or her) finger on it... OK, that's a poor pun, but the point is that PSA screening (a blood test) is fine as far as it goes, but your Doc has to do a finger-wave on your prostate about once a year for grizzled old farts like us. The doc's finger can find areas of the gland which are suspicious and need further evaluation by urologists before the PSA test changes in a significant way. Some physicians watch the absolute PSA number (0.1-4.0 are normal), but the trend is more important. A rising trendline signals a possible problem even if the numbers are less than 4.0. If you only have one data point–no trendline. Do the test on a regular basis as directed by your doc. To make the problem more interesting, lots of things interfere with PSA testing. A medicine used for hair loss, Propecia, will cut the PSA number in half so if your Doc does not know you have started to take it, they may think your PSA number is fine when it really should be half as high. Smoking also effects the PSA test. Good luck, Scott. More prayers are on the way.
From Wes Routh: I wanted to share with you some info about my recent lifestyle change and the success it brought. Fifteen months ago, my doctor gave me my prescription to Metformin and said, "You are a diabetic." That was due to a lifetime of overeating, especially carbohydrates. Before that, I weighed over 260 pounds for over a decade. I read two books (Overcoming Runaway Blood Sugar by Dennis Pollock and God's Pathway to Healing Diabetes by Reginald B. Cherry, M.D.), implemented the two recommended game plans (Pollock's lifestyle changes and Dr. Cherry's supplement regimen). I lost 40 pounds in less than six months, kept my blood sugar low, and bought a new wardrobe. Two months ago, my TRICARE doctor I had for the past nine months said to me, "Tell me again why the previous doctor said you are a diabetic?" She looked through my medical records at a year of good test numbers and took me off the Metformin and the blood pressure medicine I had to take because the Metformin raised my blood pressure. I am still a diabetic, but with my new lower carb lifestyle, my blood sugar is never high; plus losing weight and keeping it off was has been amazing (I had never dieted, but I lost the weight with diet and supplements, not exercise). I can now easily do the exercise I was always sporadic at before and the exercise helps control the blood sugar too. If you hear of others struggling with the early effects of diabetes, I can send them some other info if they contact me.
From James Hartney: Looks like you'll have to move me to the "Count Me in DC" list. We moved to Williamsburg, VA in late Nov. I'm working at JFCOM in Norfolk as the NSA rep there. Not sure how long we'll be here, but Ardis is hoping it's forever! Daughter, Maureen, graduates in May from U of Florida and is looking forward to learning where she'll be going to UPT. She hopes it'll be either Whiting or Columbus.
From Paul Narzinski: As I recall, the only other senior to leave CS11 was Craig Dennington who DNG. A down-to-earth guy whose world crashed on him 7th semester– dumped by long time girlfriend, wrecked car, got depressed, drank to ease some hurts, and when an AOC chased a CDB at him . . . he bailed rather than see the rest of his cadet life go TANGO UNIFORM. I think a lot of CS11 classmates wanted to help him but just didn't know how . . .
From Steve Watson to Jim C: Doing great. Just had the joint in my left big toe replaced. No big deal, should be back to 100% very soon. It is interesting to note that you are working with DEA [as a contractor]. When I was in the AF, I started a hot air balloon program. As part of that program, I flew the balloon and took up drug enforcement/JTF6 guys up in the balloon for counter drug work. It was a great time and flew some very interesting missions. Had a blast.I cant believe an old fart LtCol in the Air Force could spend about 5 years flying a hot air balloon. Life is good sometimes!
From Richard Kennard To Al Bready: Breaaaaaaaddddddyyyy! Hi, Al. Thanks for the invite; however I will be unable to attend [the DAP], free first round notwithstanding. I have great memories of you and the time I spent at USAFA. I still remember at BCT when your squadron trotted onto the "intramurder" field to play mine ("I" Squadron - Invaders), and hearing y'all chant in cadence, "Invalids squat to pee, Invalids squat to pee!"
From Ted Thompson: [I think] Jim Carlson was not the last one accepted to USAFA for our class. I also received my appointment just two weeks prior to showing up July 4th in Colorado Springs. I cannot in good faith claim last appointed to our class though. I know there was at least classmate (Fred Basin) who was enrolled, head shaved, etc., at West Point when his appointment to USAFA came through. He wasted no time getting to Colorado. Fred Basin concludes: Ted's version of my journey is mostly correct – I didn't get my head shaved at the Point – but the rest it true enough. The Point was starting before the 4th of July weekend and we started right after that. My parents had driven me there from Buffalo, NY and called home to check on things as my two older siblings had remained there. My brother informed her that the state police were looking for us and we'd also gotten a call from my state Representative asking if I wanted the USAFA appointment. My mom and I went [to the Point] to get my $300 deposit back instead of reporting-in the next morning – and we promptly headed for Buffalo to make the trip to Colorado. It seems the primary had backed out at the last minute to attend a regular school. It took quite a while to get anything with my name on it. The 'rest of the story' involves my mom having a conversation with a major about why I wanted to go Air Force instead of Army – all the while he’s ignoring the long-hair (me) standing nearby. He was explaining that each person had their own preferences, when I chimed in that I wanted to fly. He looked at me with this tremendously incredulous look on his face and said "And you were going to come here???" I replied "Yeah, that's pretty far out, isn't it man?" He was speechless for a few seconds – and then bellowed "Sergeant, I need that check NOW!"
From Mark Beesley: There I was, minding my own business the other day at The Capital Grille in DC for a meeting with a guy named Bruce Lyman. I walked in to meet him and his wife and began the business discussions. Bruce asked me to tell him a little bit about myself. I answered in my standard way – and then this little voice pops up and says, "Really, you might know my Dad. "Oh sure, I said, I might. What is his name?? Upon which she replied meekly, "Doug Fraser." No kidding. Well "Yes," I replied. "I know him as he and I went to the Air Force Academy together in the same class, 75 Best Alive!, and we have been stationed together several times from Luke to the Pentagon to Colorado after our Academy days." Nobody, including myself, could believe what had just happened. So this was little Heather whom I remember as a young one a long, long time ago.
Admin. From Mary Stytz: While you are at it, we need more photos (for past and present) for the AOG class website. Any and all current get-togethers and some stuff from the ancient or recent past (with captions) is needed. Cadet days, graduation, weddings, low-altitude B-52 runs, anything. More is better. BTW, we also need digital copies of our class's senior yearbook photos. If anyone has access to them, or a cheap way to reproduce them, please let me know. Thanks to everyone!
From Jim Carlson: Our Webmaster, Marty Stytz, wants to honorably memorialize our GBNF. If any of you have photos of our departed classmates (cadet days and after graduation) please send them to Marty. He's set up a '75 GBNF page in our class website.
ZoomieNation News. All '75 graduates – and some non-grads who were in the AOG database before the 30th reunion – have profile placeholders in the ZoomieNation site. All you need to do is activate it if you haven’t done so already.
iSABRD. BTW, all of us also have pre-populated profiles (nascent for most of you) in iSABRD, the multi-Academy jobs network. All you need to do to activate your profile is to log in with your AOG number and last 4. Your squadron POC has your AOG number if you don’t know it. It’s also in the annual Register of Graduates publication next to your name.
To and About Non-Grads. From Jim C: Keith Workman (CS-36/CS-35) has graciously stepped up to the plate to serve as the class Point of Contact (POC) for '75ers who did not graduate (but who are '75ers and classmates nonetheless). Many of you are aware that Chip Kerby (CS-07/CS-12) has masterfully served in this capacity for over 5 years, and kept you informed of class activities. Life is never static, and Chip's plate has gotten full over time, and his personal free time has practically disappeared. However, he has just as graciously agreed to serve as Keith's backup POC. Keith's job, as with any of the Squadron and Geographic POCs, is to be the conduit for class news and interest items that are emailed to him by any of the class officers or POCs, which he will forward to you. How often he does this or in what matter will be at his discretion – so as not to inundate you with "spam" on too frequent a basis. Keith will also maintain your contact information, and make sure that any changes are reported to me, our class Scribe Paul Kent and our class Webmaster. This is very important because as the next Reunion comes around, Keith will be your prime source of information for Reunion details and planning. So please advise him if you move or change numbers or emails. The attached listing is what I have for you guys to-date. As the backup POC, Chip will be copied by me on any emails to Keith, and if he suspects or knows that Keith might be offline for some time (vacation, illness) then Chip will do the forwarding. The backup Squadron POCs do the same thing for their squadrons. And if you're carried on any of the squadron rosters (3-degree squadrons), then you'll get duplicate emailings from your respective POCs or backups. Twice the love – or three times if you're on a Geo POC list! That's it. Looks simple on paper, but each of the class POCs is a prime link in our class communications. Without them, we'd be like – you know – that class of '74. The class of '75 has the distinction of being the most connected (wired) and actively online class ever from the Aluminum Womb. We also have the largest active non-grad contingent. And at the rate we're going, there's a possibility that we'll get a record-breaking 75% turnout for the next Reunion. That's my goal as your class president. '75 Best Alive!
From Bob Oswalt: I was a member of USAFA '75, but left early to live life in May of 1974. Doolie squadron was CS-40, Ali Baba. Next two years was CS-09, Nookie Niners . . . funny what you can remember. From Larry McGirr: For former cadets, class of '75 who did not graduate, there is Tom M. Whiteside, who is an attorney in Houston TX. He was in CS-23 3rd class year and doolie year in CS-35. Left after 3 degree year, went to Texas A&M for an accounting degree and UT for a law degree (or the reverse!). In the early 80's he was working corporate tax law. Don't have his current address though.
Sandy Terry is at it again with his "Riding to Save Lives" Classmates and Friends of USAFA 75: Every five minutes someone in the United States learns that they have leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma, and over 747,000 Americans are living with blood cancer today. Sadly every 10 minutes a child or adult dies from one of these diseases.
Team In Training (TNT) is the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's endurance training program. It provides runners, cyclists, and tri-athletes coaching, camaraderie, and training for marathons, triathlons, and century rides (100 mile bike rides) around the country, all while raising money to help fight and find a cure for blood cancers. Since it's inception in 1988 more than 360,000 volunteer participants have helped raise more than $850 million to help fight all forms of blood cancers.
Many of you will remember that I was participating in this event/effort last year; that is until I got a call from my physician and told that a routine exam had discovered a tumor that needed to come out immediately. I went under the knife the next week. Everything was successful and I'm training again with Team In Training for this year's event, a 100-mile bicycle endurance race around Lake Tahoe, Nevada. My goal is to raise $4,400 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to support their efforts to help fight all forms of blood cancers.
As a class we have shared many experiences over the last 35 years, some good and some not so good. Today we have friends and classmates who have had their lives, or the lives of their loved ones, changed in some way by blood cancers. With your help a cure can be found.
Please open your hearts and donate to this worthy cause. I will be riding with our class crest either silkscreened on my race jersey or decaled on my bike. Ride with me through your donation. No donation is too small and all donations are tax deductible under the charitable contributions rules of the Internal Revenue Service (which is a good thing!).
Donating is simple. I want to sincerely thank you for your support and friendship over the years; together we can fight and win this battle. Sanford S. Terry
