Dave Layer/Richard Doane Memorial Race - Page 2

Mike,

It will be a year on May 18th. I was at the Fisher-Titus Hospital in
Norwalk, which is a great facility. It was only 10 minutes from the
track. The Drs. and staff were very professional and caring. Turns
out it was a trauma III center and they were prepared for my problem.

I am still taking therapy twice a week and can walk slowly with a
cane, can’t drive or lift anything heavy yet. I thought I would be ahead
of where I am now, but I guess it just takes time.

My wife is an ICU Nurse and that has helped tremendously. I married
her for her looks and personality but her skills in the medical field have
really paid off.

I got to go to the Charlotte race for a few hours and got to see some
old friends, and had a good time. I hope we get some good support
for the Dave Layer/Richard Doane race.

Thanks,

Roger
P.S. Jimmy Flynt I hope you didn’t
laugh too loud when I called you
Ronnie.

Hope to have all my "pieces" in the right "places" in time. Had mine apart far too long. This race will be a good one. Hope to see a lot of friends I haven't seen for a while. Thanks to Roger and DeDe for their effort. It will be great to have stock and super/stock back at Kanawha Valley.

Just a reminder for everyone to make plans to get to this race. If you've never been there, Kanawha Valley is a really nice track.

Roger is working hard to pay tribute to Dave and Richard, so come out and support this race!

I was hoping to make it,but I haven't had a chance to even touch my car,it has been sitting with front suspension out and ready to go back together since late October.

Roger, I'm not going to be able to attend but would like to still support this race. Could you post an address where I could send my $50 entry fee. I'm sure there are others that would like to do the same. Thanks, Dave Walther
