THANK YOU:
I  wish to thank the Lafayette Rotary Club for the attractive plant that was sent to my home to wish me a speedy recovery from surgery. The thoughtfulness of my fellow Rotarians is greatly appreciated. Sincerely,  TERRY R. WEST

Jane,
WOW! What a wonderful surprise to receive this beautiful potted plant for which I will forever be grateful. The thought of staying connected is very touching and I am extremely appreciative.
Recovery is taking a little longer than the current normal three day period for "scope" surgery which had to abandoned as complications arose, resorting to "open " surgery.  I was able to return home on Saturday morning and have been mobile ever since.
I am planning to attend next week's meeting?
Sincerely,  CECIL BLIGNAUT
