As a sidenote I get a chuckle to see that his posting rank is listed as "junior rocketeer"

Oh my. At least it sounds like she is doing OK now.

Yeah, that "Junior Rocketeer" makes me giggle.

But he's only posted three times. The first was upon the death of Carl McLawhorn and the second was in January when he got a bunch of "happy birthday" wishes on his 85th. Then the third was the post about Gleda's fall and beginning recovery.

Scott should go in and give him a custom "user title"....

WOW!

Hope they both are doing good!

We always enjoy them at our club Christmas party!

Seems there's a lot of folks here that have met them. I have not. But it's on my bucket list. I have a 40 y/o Big Bertha with one fin prepped on both sides for signatures. I really would like to get that chance. Long distance travel doesn't come easy for me, which is why I have never attended a NARAM event. I understand he is a usual attendee? Maybe the rocket gods will bless me with fortune enough to afford the next one. My bench has been a disaster for well over 6 months now. I am indeed paying my dues!!
