Well it sure was an interesting night. I want to thank all the wonderful Gyro’s and Gyrettes for all they have done for Lynn and I. For those of you who didn’t attend the Party we had an unfortunate incidence as Lynn came down with what we believe was a Myocarditis attack of the heart and was taken to the UofA hospital just before dinner. She is still in the hospital as I’m writing this post, but in better spirits. They still need to complete an MRI tomorrow and hopefully she will return home after that. Thanks for all the prayers and messages it really shows the depth of family in Gyro.
In good Gyro spirit I understand that Bill Austin grabbed the bull by the horns and continued on with the program. Hope the meal was as good as it smelled when we left. Thanks Don for doing the honours of initiating Paul West into Sherwood Park Gyro. I also understand in Rikki’s absense Don passed the “fine box” around and we wound up with a donation of over $600 and the donation receipt was won by Lloyd Wilson. Lloyd has indicated that the donation has already been sent in.
I want to thank Lynn also as I asked her to lead us in prayer before the meal and she surprised me by reading a prayer our 9 year old Grandson Isaac wrote, it was beautiful.
Quite an evening in all but it makes me proud to be a Sherwood Park Gyro.
Merry Christmas
