David Jordan

Happy Birthday David. Big 80, quite a milestone, but I beat you to it. September was the month that I became 80 years young, who would have thought it years ago when we were students at Frank L Ashley. I hope that you have been celebrating all day. Now on to 90. Okay.

Happy birthday, John. Time sure passes quickly as we get older. Best wishes.

Happy birthday, Max. Next month it's my turn. Haven't heard from you lately. I hope that's a good sign. I'm still getting along with my spinal stenosis, but nothing more serious than that. The next round of epidurals are December 6. They don't last the whole three months, but they still help. The VA is going to provide me with a powered scooter. Supposed to be delivered around Christmas. Now that our "Blue Line" light rail is operable, I can ride the scooter for about two blocks and go about anywhere in uptown Charlotte I want. The line goes all the way from UNCC to Pineville. I won't have to worry about parking or walking any distance (can't walk any distance anyway.) Christmas is coming hope. I hope you and your family have a great one.

Doris, happy birthday. I know this has been a tough year for you having lost Leon, but life goes on. You still have your children and lots of friends and family that all care about you and I am sure you care about them. Thanksgiving is a time that helps us reflect on what really matters. I told a cousin of mine those same words yesterday. He is an 83 year old Baptist preacher on dialysis. But he continues to live as if life is still normal. He lives in the Fayetteville area and calls me at least once or twice in the mornings each week while he is lying in the bed in the center - four hours each day. But he doesn't get depressed. He has a strong faith and keeps on living as normal as possible. Yesterday he and I talked and I told him that Thanksgiving really means more to me as a holiday than Christmas. I said that it's the one time families get together and visit one another over a good meal without the distractions and hullabaloo that takes place during Christmas. And that's what Carol and I did yesterday - we had the family that lives closest to us and several neighbors that are single and alone. After the 1:00 pm meal, we all just sat around and talked and laughed until we were worn out. It was a great day. We wish you all the love and affection from afar - and may God bless you. With love, David and Carol
