Please read the email I have copied below.

Dear Chrysler guys,


Bob Cahill and his high school sweetheart decided last summer to be together more, so he moved to Little Rock to be near Molly.

This fall he broke his right arm.

Dec 3 he and Molly left for North Little Rock from Charlottesville. As they were nearing their destination, they were in a car accident~ 4th in line in a multi car pile up. Front end of car gone and $5,000 damage to his car.

On Dec 7th ~ 43 boxes of his possessions arrived at the Presbyterian Village where he is living.

Somehow he fell over backwards and broke his left arm. so was put in the health care unit because he can no longer use his walker without arms as now both arms are broken.





Anyway, Bob's really having a tough time right now. He's pretty discouraged.

I think it would be wonderful if we could send him a bunch of get well cards.

Can you help me by spreading the word to guys on your lists? Thanks.



Bob Cahill

510 Brookside Dr #28

Little Rock, AR 72205


GUYS TRUST ME WHEN I SAY WITHOUT THIS GUY AND THE ENGINEERS HE HIRED BACK IN THE 50'S AND 60'S WE WOULDNT BE TALKING ABOUT THIS STUFF LIKE WE ARE TODAY. I NEVER MAKE POST LIKE THIS BUT FOR ONCE GO BUY A CARD AND PLEASE MAIL IT TO HIM. I'M SENDING MINE TODAY.


Thanks,
Herb McCandless
