MidWest Show - Don Gfell

Post by Raphael »

Don Gfell just called me and won't be able to attend the show. It seems that his wife, Bobbie, slipped and fell, breaking her hip. She is presently being operated on. Thus Don and she, mainstays of virtually every show East of the Mississippi, will not be setting up, as he needs to stay home and attend to his childhood sweetheart.

Let's all give our thoughts and prayers for Bobbie's speedy recovery. She's a great person and real asset to all of us.

Don and Bobbie were really looking forward to the show. Hoping the surgery goes well she likes to keep active. Steve

Very sorry to hear this. Met them both for the first time in Charlotte a couple months ago, very nice people. Hope very much that all goes well. Lee B.
