Hello All,
           Frank Esposito, KB3AHE aka "Da Slab Bacon" has been in the hospital since last evening. I was speaking to Franks' wife, Carol last night and this morning, and she explained he is currently undergoing tests at the present time and (unfortunately) has no further information except that he is in stable condition.  She hopes to have more information when test results are in. Carol mentioned she will call me and let me know and I can post more information at that time.

PLEASE don't try to call the house at this time. I'll be more than glad to post any new updates as soon as I have them from Carol. For the time being she is either at the hospital, or if at home; has a need to keep the telephone open in the event a call would come from a Medical professional, or from Frank.

Please say a prayer for both Frank and Carol, that they will get through this trying period so that Frank can come home from the hospital in the very near future.

Unfortunately, this is all the information I have at the present time.

Thank you in advance from the both of them for honoring their wishes not to call the house at this time.

Yours, Very Truly,

Joe Cro N3IBX

Hi Frank,

I hope that this message finds you on the mend and feeling better. I really hope this is nothing serious, and that whatever it may prove to be, you get well soon.

Our warmest wishes and prayers for a speedy and healthy recovery!

In my relatively short time on this site, I've learned much and made many friends and acquaintances. Frank, you have always offered sage advice and witty comments. Get 'on back home so you can continue the tradition!

Best wishes Frank! Get well soon!

Frank, I have worked as a teacher in high school for 7 years and then later as a technical instructor in the automotive industry, I'm used give orders and instructions.... And my students always do as I say.

I say;
-Frank, get better, and do it now!
Any questions?
