Note from Frank Schoen

 You may or may not know that I fell last year - shortly after moving to a retirement community (Chateau La Jolla Inn)  in La Jolla, CA.  Anyway, I had major back surgery (courtesy of the VA) at the UCSD Medical Center in San Diego.  After 11 days in the hospital and 8 weeks in Rehab, plus Physical Therapy, I'm finally at home now recuperating.  It's been slow recovering, but then, I remembered that I wasn't  walking  yet 4 months after I was born - over 84 years ago.
Hopefully, I will get a check to you shortly for my Rafino Dues.  Sorry for the delay.  Everything takes longer it seems - including the simple task of writing a check.  I'll take some time tomorrow or the next day to visit the Website and update mtself.
Hope all is well.  I probably will not make the reunion this year or whenever the next one is.
All the best,
Frank Schoen
