Tracey & Happy,

Our prayers and thoughts are with you all during these trying times. I keep remembering Happy singing "Sweet Caroline" at VMP last year. Those days will return.

Many people know me. So many call me and check the boards for updates. I am just one of the many that really love JIMMY THE SHOE! He taught me as well as thousands of others. He has helped thousands become better racers and better people in general.

He is fighting for this one pretty hard. All the "celebs" that came to visit him with all their "hardware" wishing this gentle giant of a racer anything they can do to help him. All we can do is keep hoping somehow he can get his kidney's restarted with his liver so he can come home to the track.

Sal Biondo is a super class guy! He came yesterday and made me remind the hospital administrator that they have a true Celeb here and all the Nurses on the floor and the doctors I spoke with, know he is a very loved man by LOTS AND LOTS of people. Sal, your such a great person for the way you are!!!!

They played "Sweet Caroline" this year. At least two or three times.

I left the hospital a little while ago. It seems that this weekend a HUNDRED PLUS came to see THE SHOE and damn if it did not make him a happy man!

As far as his current condition. I am very sorry to say he is failing now a lot more minute by minute. I guess THE SHOE wanted to let his friends come to say good bye my dear friend. I am so upset over this words cannot describe.Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. He is a true friend to ALL in racing!
