 Where did Murf go

Let me begin by way of an introduction, my name is John and I am the GM of Operations for a group of companies, owned & operated by a member of this group, "Murf".

I have been receiving many e-mails from his "e-friends" the last few months because of his disappearance from this, as well as several other user-group boards.

Unfortunately, I am the bearer of bad news, late last fall while away hunting at the family hunt camp, Murf suffered a massive heart attack.

The situation was made even worse by the fact that it occured while he was out in the bush, alone on a deer stand. He was discovered some time later by another person in the group when he failed to respond to radio calls. He was several hours from medical assistance even after he was found. He has been in a convalescent center since just before Christmas, and is due to go home very soon, to recuperate there for several more months.

He has been asking for a laptop so he could get on-line for some time, however they are not allowed in the hospital, so he has had myself, and other members of the staff, dropping in here to make reports to him on the goings-on here. He asked me to explain his absence so as not to offend you, his friends, by his absence.

I'm sure he will be back with you all here in short order.


John.

God bless him. Give him our best. Tell him to get his raggedy butt out of that sack and back on a tractor as soon as possible.
Life is waiting. Ain't much of that going on in a convalescent hospital.

Wow, I had missed Murf but had thought that he was really busy again or out of the country. It never occured to me that he might be haveing a med problem. I think that I can say that everyone here misses him. I would like to wish him a speedy recovery and hope that he returns to JPlan quickly.

 Where did Murf go

I was wondering about Murf the other day as a new member was writing in to get peoples background. Up until last year we had a cottage near Aspley Ont., which Murf had mentioned last summer.
It is a little difficult to get to from here. Sorry to here of his heart attack, but glad to hear that he made it.
We had a number of close calls in our family in the woods.
Hunting alone is not something I would recommend. Last year someone down the road was hunting in a tree stand and fell. His safety caught him but he spent the day hanging by his feet. He survived, for a while, but only about a month after the accident.

John: Thanks for the note. I'm sure everybody here is happy Murf can look forward to going home. His participation has been missed.

Thanks for the info about Murf. He was definately a wealth of information on many subjects. Being a Mech Eng myself I very much liked his explanation of different questions.

I have also been wondering where Roger Loving has been. He was on the same level as Murf.
