6/15/20 Monday I just got of the phone with Richie. He is home, sounds great and his spirits are high. Please keep praying for him. He told me that he is up to calls but please no visitors. His phone ( cell) is 396-527-4462. He would love hearing from all his friends. Only twelve days locked up this time. We are now sitting at Bahama Breeze having lunch! He likes the taste of Freedom-just have to keep away from the Corona Virus
I haven’t heard from or seen any posts from Mike since before Christmas when he went into an Independent/assisted Living facility, Grand Villa, in Largo FL. With this virus and not hearing from him I got nervous and decided to call him yesterday. I can’t tell you how happy I was to hear him answer his cell phone. He is fine, he sounded great, his spirits high and he loves it where he is, he said the place is beautiful. Due to the virus there aren’t any visitors allowed. He has a 2-room suite and again because of the virus he can’t go to the dining room for his meals, his meals are brought to his room. I am sure he would love to hear from people. His cell number is 727-510-9472
Dave Kolman called me today and informed me that he has been in South Nassau Communities Hospital, in Oceanside, LI for 2 weeks with some type of bacteria infection. They have cleared the infection but since then he hasn’t had an appetite and hasn’t been eating. He has no strength, can’t stand up wan walk. While he is in this condition, they will not release him. Thank God he does not have Covid-19. He called me to see if I knew anyone who can get him out of the hospital, which obviously I don’t. He gave me his daughter Susan’s phone number who is a nurse and been speaking to doctors daily as she is not allowed to visit him, because the hospital is lock down to visitors. She told me he is confused, hasn’t been able to speak with anyone and is lonely. His phone number is 917-622-4027 (cell) She believes if he gets phone calls from former co-workers would lift his spirits.
