RICHARD J is down & out

[frostymug56]

just to let you guys know,, richard is in the hospital. he fell a couple weeks ago & screwed up his intestines. of coures being a hard head, he waited to long to see the DOC. they had to drain infection from him, & now he's facing surgery. talked to him this morning , he said they are waiting to get him stronger,[ as in he is under nourished],, then some time later this week he will have surgery to repair the damage. so if you have sent any for sharpening, or plan to,,wait. he is going to be down for a month atleast. hopefully he will be home next week, then he can let ya all know what the game plan will be.

Well, that is a bummer.

Hopefully he heals up well. I have never done business with him, but I always recommend his services to others here.

He has contributed to this forum, both time and advice.

He is down but not out. That guy is strong and won't go down easy.

I have been chatting with him regularly and I am confident he will be up and around soon enough.
