Listers, I heard from Bob Grady today, with the wonderful news that he is feeling fine and well, and is very much looking forward to judging the Northeast Futurity / Maturity on May 8, hosted by the GSDC of Long Island in West Windsor, NJ. He expressed consternation that there is a rumor that came to his attention to the effect that he is not well and won't be there, and assured me that that is completely incorrect. As he put it "I am fine, have been off oxygen for over 6 months, am not smoking, still have a nip or two <G>." So, in other words, he is definitely "our Bob"<g>, but better than ever..!! I wonder what he will wear ! It will be Spring after all, so perhaps pastels ???? Margy Golant ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
