Richard Ulbrich surgery

Postby Bill from WA » Wed May 31, 2006 7:33 am

Hello all

My dear friend and mentor, Richard Ulbrich, will be undergoing major surgery soon. Would you please send up your prayers and well wishes for a successful outcome? He is just now recovering from knee replacement surgery, and will have to go back for more major surgery as soon as he is strong enough.

Thank you,

Bill

hi Bill from WA

Any "dear friend and mentor" of yours must be a very special person.

Here's hoping that your dear friend experiences a "successful outcome" and a speedy and full recovery.

Respectfully

I hope he gets better. I used to love to go to his data base. I guess it isn't available anymore?

His database has been updated (this is an ongoing procedure), and the web site workup is near completion. I will be helping to evaluate the test model, and it is hoped that it will be up and running within a few months.

Yikes, what would we do without all your wisdom and kindness helping guide us in this wonderful sport. You will not only get well, but you will be better than ever!

All fingers and toes crossed!

Praying for Richard's swift recovery.
