Terry:  I could have been wrong about the wife.  I thought John said his wife 
and son Tommy, but maybe not.

Sammie / TCBers     I thought I heard Lyle lost his wife recently . David 
Garrett drove by his house as it was ablaze ( not knowing it was Lyle s )  & 
said he had never seen a house burn as big or bright before . I bet he had 
cases in garage ?????   When I first heard his name , I thought it was his 
health .  So I was greatful it was " ONLY " his house .    SEE    we still are 
thankful & blessed          Things can be replaced    people can t be 
replaced        My 2 cents

I just received a phone call from John Dietchman in Ft. Worth informing me that 
Lyle Cherry's house burned yesterday.  He had no insurance and apparently he, 
his wife and son only have the clothes on their back.  At any rate; John is 
trying to collect funds to assist Lyle and is going tomorrow to take Lyle and 
his family clothes shopping.  I told him I would pledge $50 personally and I 
think the ET VEE-DUB club is going to donate another $100.  I plan to take my 
money to John at Jack Wenks show on Sunday (Dec 4).  
 
If you do not know Lyle, his VW shop is located in North Richland Hills and he 
is one of the premier VW engine and transmission builders around just about 
anywhere and has been wrenching on VWs and supporting the hobby for at least 45 
years.
 
If you would like to do something I would suggest that you give John Dietchman 
a call as to how best to do it.  His phone # is 817-996-8901.
