This past Thursday (Oct. 11) we received a call that Diane's father, Dean Clutter, had been taken to the hospital with heart problems. Dean is an active 82 years old, still preaching at the church in Coldwater, MI and is a walleye's worst nightmare. The doctors discovered four blockages and so Dean is to have by-pass surgery. We have made several quick trips to Kalamazoo where the hospital is. The surgery has been postponed once due to some lung issues and so we still do not have a definite date for the surgery. We ask your prayers on his behalf and for his wife of 60+ years, Ruth. It promises to be a stressful time but Dean is in the Lord's hands, as we all are. Whatever the physcial outcome the spiritual outcome is already decided and in that we take comfort.
We also just found out that we will have another granddaughter sometime in January or early February next year. Julie and Josh will have three girls less than three years (thanks to Josh and Julie who caught my typo 'months') apart. We are excited for them and rejoice in our fourth grandchild in less than three years. Diane and I will be traveling to Bolivia in late January to visit the family. You can visit their blog blog to see the first picture of Baby Marcum #3.
