Your fingers and mind done well. I will pass on to Linda your words of comfort. -----Original Message----- From: Johnette McDuffie <[email protected]> To: pate <[email protected]> Sent: Wed, Jul 28, 2010 11:23 am Subject: Re: [PATE] Joel Pate Yes, I'm sure everyone has noticed no comments from Joel. Vacation was on my mind and thought maybe I had missed his announcement. I'm so very sorry to hear it is a stroke and surgery. He/and family will be in my prayers as well as I will put him on Church prayer lists in my area. While some of us are only looking for our direct line of ancestors, Joel ( as well as few others) are "Pate" ( all Pates) researchers. There are not many who spend the time required to research them all ! I think most of us have come to depend upon Joel's input. Saying that, I realize how Joel's wife/family must be feeling at this time. I pray for them to receive strength from God to deal with Joel's health. Sorry if I didn't word this too well. Seems like my thoughts and fingers Can't always work together.

Joel had a stroke and had to have surgery to stop the bleeding in his brain. He is still in Neurology ICU but is making such good progress that he will be going to a private room very soon. I talked to Linda several times and asked if I could post something about Joel on the List serve and she was delighted. She has been getting so many phone calls she can't handle all of them. Tonight Linda was on cloud nine. Joel's speach is coming back and seems to be doing great. Please remember him and Linda in your prayers. Linda will keep me updated and I will pass the word on to all of you through this venue. -- Clovis ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message No virus found in this incoming message.
