February 14, 2010 Valentines Day

No pictures to post, but we have some sad news. John's brother, James Howard Mark Dawson, passed away today. We got the message about 7:17 pm est. He had suffered a major heart attack and they were going to go in surgically and try to put stents in the arteries that he had had a bypass in in 1986. He went into respiratory arrest and they couldn't operate. He wanted no life support so they kept him on morphine and he passed fairly quickly. He wanted his body donated for research and then to be cremated. He requested no burial service, so when Gail (his wife) comes home this summer we will honor him in some way...to be determined. He was 73 years old.
