Hi Ken,

Glad to hear from you, how are Bob and Maxine doing? I am going to leave 
this topic in it's whole rather than delete part of it. It has been a while 
since we have made a SS meeting but look forward to doing so soon. Tell Bob 
and Maxine hi for us. We look forward to meeting you.

 Jim and Dorothy.
