[SFDXA] Fwd: [FCG] [Swodxamo] info on Bob Heil

[Randy Shirley]

I just saw this in the FCG group and thought it should be immediately 
forwarded to SFDXA.

I am so sorry to hear this!  We were attempting to get Bob to present at 
one of our meetings, but it looks like it may be a "No Go" if he doesn't 
improve.  Our prayers are with him and his family.

Very 73,
Randy N4QV
