Hey steven hope your dad is doing well. Tell him dad, marvin and myself are thinking about him. When he feels like talking tell him to give me a call. my father in law had both knees replaced 6 months apart and he is doing great now. Horace should do just fine Jerry Dunahoo

Stephen,
I would have figured he would have needed Tommy John surgery to fix his elbow from rowing that 4-speed all these years. Seriously though, the other Johnson gang from Georgia are thinking about your dad. Not sure I've ever met a nicer guy at the drag strip and one who is definitely dedicated to making a 67 Fairlane go down a drag strip. Tell him dad and I say hello.

Hey Stephen, You get Dad all fixed up he may want to steer that Fairlane again. Praying for a speedy recovery.

Stephen I'm sorry that your Dad is in the hospital, hope all is going well. Also sorry about you losing your driving job in the Fairlane. Hey just kidding, but its time for the ole' Man to get back in the drivers seat for a couple of passes. Take care

Stephen, please pass along my wishes for a speedy recovery to your dad. Labor Day would be a good date to celebrate the conclusion of rehab.

Stephen & Horace Johnson · 05-19-2011, 06:42 PM

update: dad's surgery went very well. he has walked 60ft a couple of hrs after the surgery, and today he walked just as far. Its goin to be a slow progress, but hopefully we can get him out to the races before the end of the year...who knows maybe INDY

. Dad goes home friday afternoon

RJ, and Jeff colvert,
Is that the reason why he keeps renewing his license?? thats fine, I'd love to see the old man row the gears again....those are my fondest memories!!

Jeff Tueton, he will be calling you soon!!

Dad says thank you, thank you, thank you to each and every one of you!! He cant wait to join you all soon!!
