I have added your family to my prayer list chairboy. I hope this all turns out good for everyone involved and that your brother-in-law can't get in touch with you guys because he is helping with the relief that is needed there now.

God Bless you guys chairboy.

I've been faxing the following document to hospitals in Thailand today:

http://hallert.net/misc/Luke Letter for Thailand.doc

A friend of mine translated a letter I wrote into Thai, and I added a photo of my step brother.  In addition, a friend of his is heading to the area to look for him.  My sister put her trip on hold temporarilly until we hear from her friend.

No change so far, but it doesn't look good.

I'll add my prayers for him too, Chairboy.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

Don't know if you actually read my post above.  You did not acknowledge. You should post that letter w/photo there as well. It will be seen.

Regards,

Gunthr

Chair,

A buddy of mine is flying a plane down there tonight.  I emailed him and his wife also said check out http://www.sawadee.com

I logged on there and it has status on the hotels.  She said there were lists of names there last night but I couldnt find them.

You are still in our prayers...

Regards

Hang in there Chair.....

My buddy and a few crews are headed there now with relief supplies there and to Sri Lanka.  The phones are swamped but your email has been forwarded to them and they promised me they will do what they can....I was stationed with most of them a couple years back.

Keep the faith!

Regards
