Gil Jackson, our Class President, is back in the hospital today. Aldine wrote, "We value your prayers on his behalf. He thinks he might be able to come home Sat." ... Gil's legs have troubled him during these many years. He has had trouble walking and he and Aldine did not plan to come to Homecoming. ... In April, Aldine wrote, "Gil is doing better. His blood clots were in his abdomen. He is on coumadin now (and probably forever after). He seems to be gaining strength each day. I am sure the many prayers in his behalf have made all the difference and I thank you for your concern" Again he needs or prayers. Lila

Thanks for the update on Gilbert Jackson. Aldine and I grew up together in Gary, Indiana, and her brother, Floyd, influenced me to attend ENC. She was one year ahead of me in high school and then college. Aldine and Shirley roomed together during their Sophomore years - the year that Shirley and I met. Aldine introduced us - we (all three) were standing on the little cement slab at the entrance to Munro Hall. I remember it well. Roy Quanstrom.

Thanks so much. I have heard from Roy Quanstrom, too. That was really great of you to get us connected after all these years. Gil came home Friday evening and is just as before he went into the hospital. Seems like these little ER trips come up every now and then. Our kids were all here yesterday. Aldine
