************************************* A. MEMBER UPDATES
Dennis Kester, Treasurer and Senator #38041, remains in the hospital while recovering from pneumonia. They had hoped to take him home by now but he had a relapse. He is improving as of today, being able to stand again. He is currently in therapy on the 3rd floor of Heritage Hospital in Taylor. Ellen, Dennis's wife, does not know for sure what visiting hours are and when he is expected to go home. You can send emails to Ellen at Weelz245@aol.com. Cards may be sent to 13760 WESTCOTT CT, SOUTHGATE, 48195. PS... Dennis's mother also had surgery during this time for cataract. Ellen has been taking care of both of them.
