Good on you George. Your daughter is at the right place for her issue. I had a friend with the same issue and going to Duke added, we think, 6 years onto his life.

You have been a welcome presence here on the Forum and in the PGCA and we hope that continues even after you have no more Parkers. Friendships are made through the common interest in Parker guns but the thing that keeps us together as friends goes way beyond Parkers.

Best, Dean
Thank You Dean. I will always have at least one Parker. The one that goes in my coffin.

Best Regards, George

I finally made a decision on my guns. I am allowing Charlton Hall Auctions of West Columbia South Carolina to sell my guns in their upcoming October 26-28, 2017 auction. I have had a long standing relationship with Charlton Hall and its owner Ronald Long. I am their "go-to" guy when they need arms appraisals. I seriously considered Julia's but decided that I needed it to be closer to home.

I hope to God that I have not waited to long. My daughter had a relapse a week ago. It seems that she now has an infection in her brain cavity that they cannot identify. They are treating her at Lexington Medical Center for the infection. She speaks but no one can understand her and she has to be restrained. I can only ask for your prayers and hope that Our Dear Lord will take pity on her. I was selling my collection primarily to be able to do some things and go some places with her while I still could. I humbly ask for your prayers for God's help.

Best Regards, George
