Wish I could think of a good way to say this but will stumble through it. I received an email from Stude Bob. He has been corresponding with Kent Fedor and Kent is not having a good time to say the least! If you recall, he is only 21 years old and had built a nice Lark and it caught fire and was completely destroyed. One might say that's the good part.
The bad part is Kent's health. He contacted a staff infection and is really having a tough time, not only with his health but financially as well. He is confined to bed now, will be for some time, has to take some very expensive meds, does not have insurance, has exhausted most of the red tape one has to go through for help, and is not having any luck getting help.
Sometime after he lost the Lark, he purchased another Lark in Arizona (he lives in Michigan). Shortly after this purchase he got sick.
After the experience I had getting a transmission and rear end transported free of charge by a few of you gracious people for Snurdley's son, I think it might be possible to get Kent's Lark from Arizona to Indiana. If it can get to Indiana, we will see that it gets to South Bend where Kent has relatives and down the road when he gets healthy enough he can pick it up there.
Bob is coming to the drags next week and I am taking some little things that might cheer Kent up some and Bob and I will let it be known at the drags about Kent's situation and see if some of the Stude people there might want to contribute in any way and Bob will take it on up to Kent after the drags. I think Kent is about an hour or two north of Stanton where the drags are held.
On top of getting the car from Arizona to Indiana (or Michigan), if any one would want to send anything to Kent, whether it be monetary or just some Stude item that might cheer him up a little, you can send it direct to Kent or to either Bob or myself and we will see that he gets it.
I'm sure Kent would appreciate any emails we can send his way to help pass the time while he is confined to bed. His email address is deliriouskenny@gmail.com
We send relief to others during a crisis like Katrina, etc., and I think it is good that we do something for people like Kent. I know what you did for Snurdley and his family was REALLY appreciated.
Let's see if the people between Arizona and Michigan might be able to get the Lark started this way.

. When most of us geezers types are names in an obsolete SDC roster (the kind you used to have to pay for[xx(]), maybe Kent will reminisce as to what a great bunch we were.[:0]
We've got to quit saying, 
Hey, that'll work, Tom! I'll get it to South Bend and you can pick it up there for the rest of the way to Kent's house in Michigan. Thanx.
