CORVETTE SUPER SPORTS

GENERAL MEETING

November 6, 2007

1.
Prez Greg
opened our November meeting at 7:11pm…….hey….what am I doing
here….. I’m supposed to be in Pahrump,
Nevada racin’!!  Gee, Joe’s  saving lots of $$ by me not being in the
casino!

2.
On a sad
note….. ♪ one of our family member’s mother passed
away recently.  Next time you see
Tim Pearson, let him know that your heart is with him.  ♥  And give him a big hug!

3.
Unfortunately,
another sad note….. ♪♪ our own Ilona is still having
illness issues….. please keep her in your prayers and thoughts.  ♥

4.
Hmmmm
– bad pattern here….♪♪ ♪ with our recent
horrific California fires, we had at  the Alciatores and Chees affected by the
fires – evacuated from their homes, however, Thank the Heavens above,
they were able to return to their homes, saved from the fires.  Poor Dave and Ellis couldn’t
decide which cars to drive into their pools to save!!  Ellis & Cindy Chee had 6 to choose
from!  (Gee, Joe and I would have
gladly taken them off their hands!)

5.
On a
happy note……☺♫ Joe and Cindy are at the
November meeting… that means much more fun!!  Joe had a disc replaced in his neck
(no…. it had nothing to do with hurting the Z06 – funny how
everyone who see’s him with the neck brace, they ask if he hurt the car?)  He’s doing great and is feisty as
every!!

6.
Ah, yes,
another happy note……☺♫ ♫  Cindy’s mom had a stroke just one
week prior to Joe’s emergency spine surgery and mom is doing fine.  She’s at home recovering.  Cindy VERY much wanted to say much more
at this meeting for all the support that she received during the busy month of
October, but her eyes were leaking too much at the thought of it.  There are extra overwhelming thanks to 4
very special gentlemen that came over to my mom’s house and installed
handicap equipment so that she could go home safely – there are no words strong
enough for my gratitude (Kleenex!)
My mother was also speechless at the sight of the improvements.  From our hearts; mine, Joe’s and
my mom’s, there efforts were huge.
Thank you – plus.

7.
And a
crescendo…..  ☺♫ ♫ Pat Works –
well… we laugh that Cindy strangled Joe with his neck brace, well, Jan must
have dropped Pat on his head!  Pat,
mind you at the same time as Joe, had head surgery with many, many staples in
on the top – and he’s here tonight too!!  What a blessing this November meeting
is…. And it hasn’t even started – I’m typing this
during all the chatter!!  Glad to
see everyone doing so well!  And we
