Dear Members of Aces High,
One of our squadies killn44 John McElroy (173rd Guardian Angels) is getting ready to fly west.
He has massive blockage in his arteries and does not have very long to live. He has other complications
that are inoperable at this time. I understand John (a relatively new friend of mine) has been on a long time
and probably know quite a few of you all. Time is of essence since I just spoke to his mother as he was being
transported by ambulance to the hospital.

I'm sorry if this may not be the place to inform some of you of this, however John's life has been extremely difficult this last 6 months with
a divorce and loss of his business, on top of his health issues. He has not been able to be on Aces as much as would have liked.
Please email John at johnrmcelroy@yahoo.com, to wish him your best.
Thank you all so very much! And <S> from the 173rd!
Jet.
