“Fantastic Larry:
You are such an amazing and generous person. Thank you for your incredibly generous donation. I can’t tell you how much this means to me. I know that this fundraiser has some special meaning for you too.
I wish we were able to spend more time together riding and coffee shopping more! I’m working with my cardio and pulmonologist to determine where my “issues” are located. We’re pretty sure it’s my heart and if so I’ll hopefully get a pacemaker which would give me some of my endurance and power back. We’ll see. I know you’ve had your share of heart issues too. Getting older is not for the feint of heart!
I’d love to get together with you for coffee sometime soon. I think we’re both fairly flexible in our schedules. Afternoons generally work better for me. Let me know if that works for you.”
