Randy has been in the hospital for 17 days now fighting Coronavirus / Pneumonia . Randy and Susie attend just about every ride I've put on for years now and many of the VRCC members know them  . If its in you please keep Randy in your thoughts and prayers I could tell from talking with Susie he sure could use them right now.

Just got an update from Stanley Steamer via Messenger:

"Hi, good news! He was discharged today, he is home Smiley thanks for checking in on him  smitten )

He's breathing better, has O2 generator to be used around the clock, it will take time for his lungs to function well.

Got home Tuesday night. Want to thank everybody for the kind words, prayers, and thoughts. Some times you can't do it by yourself. Had to file a police report with the hospital someone had stolen 40 LBS off me.
