Regarding Mr. Austin Hogan...

[John D.]

As a few of you know, Austin Hogan (who really needs no introduction if you are a PGCA Member), wanted to let you folks know the following.... This note was communicated through Mr. Charles Herzog Sr. who just spoke to Austin's bride, Pam......

"..Austin came thru the surgery procedure fine, albeit 6 and 1/2 hours long.. Heart valve replaced and one bypass preformed. A bit of calcium removed from around the main arterie(s) and presumably it will be 3 to 5 days before Mr. Hogan is released from the hospital.. Mrs. Hogan asked that this information be given so that all of Austin's friends would be updated.."

So, there you have it...

My thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery are with Austin and, as well - my sincerest thanks to his wonderful bride, Pam for the update.

Thanks Charlie for passing this on..!
