Greetings All,

I am finally out of the hospital and I want to thank everyone for their prayers and good wishes. It was a pleasure to read all the notes from the Brothers.

I am only out for a short stay….I will be returning to the hospital Monday for a second operation - Tuesday. I plan to spend only a few days in the hospital after the operation and will be back - Full Power - after my release.

Thank you "All Again for the Prayers and Good Wishes". Trust me when I tell you that it really helped me to hear from all of you!!!

Mega Hooah!

B

Smoke em if you got em - because they always make more! Today, 9/11 - Let us not forget the events of this day and continue to support our Warriors that pursue those responsible for the hideous acts. I will never forget!!!

My Brother’s and Sister’s of the Leaf,

I want to thank you all for the tremendous support from the previous operation. Your prayers and good wishes truly helped me persevere a difficult time in my life.

I am almost reluctant to ask again for your support but…

I ask “All” of you to keep me in your prayers and support for the next (And Hopefully Last) operation, which is scheduled for Tuesday.

My lovely wife will update everyone on my status once the operation is completed. I am looking forward to a successful operation and hope that I can return to the Board “Full Power” in a week or two.

Smoke em if you got em because they (Almost) always make more and blow some smoke to the East for our Nation’s Warriors, past, present, and future!

Mega Hooah!

B

Greetings All,

This is Mrs. B and I want to update you all on Billy’s status. He pulled through the operation with flying colors (Those of the Red, White and Blue of course) and he is out of ICU.

As most of you know, he is one tough warrior and he was fighting the entire time. The Doctor’s said, “We are very impressed with his endurance and extraordinary personality.” =)

I want to thank you all for your prayers and to quote Billy: Mega Hooah!!!!! Smoke em if you got em because they (Almost) always make more and blow some smoke to the East for our Nation’s Warriors, past, present, and future!

Best Regards to All,

Mrs. B
