lANCE lEMMEN ( Open Heart Surgery)

[Gary Gray]

Just to let all of his friends know, Lance is going through Open Heart Surgery today or tommorrow. He will be at Clevland Medical Clinic,

His surgery is going to be very extensive. As you know, he had to drop out of the last 2 PWT's due to this condition, and God willing, will be back next year.

Please take time, to keep him in your prayers. If you get a chance, drop him a line at the Clinic, and give him a fishing report!

Our prayers are with you Lance,

Gary,Mary,& Dana

Its today Gary. Very nice guy and is in our prayers! Am sure as you know to as soon as he can drive his boat he will be back!

GOOD LUCK, LANCE. I WISH YOU A VERY SPEEDY RECOVERY. BO #582

I wondered what happened to Lance as I did not see him listed in several events.

Lance is a great guy, rode with him for one day of prefishing last year and my tournament partner drew him for day 2 of last years PWT in Dunkirk. Hope your surgery goes well and a speedy recovery.

Gary..can you come up with either an address for him in the hospital or home.

Guess he won't be able to share in any of those garlic buffalo wings at Dunkirk next season :-(

Lance is in intensive care unit at this time. Cards can be sent to:

Just recieved a call from his wife, she said he is out of surgery, currently in ICU, but surgery went well. He will be in ICU for a couple of days, then he will be moved to a room of his own. When I get the room#, I will post it. I was glad to hear the good report, as he was missed at the last 2 tournaments by all, especally me. Get well soon.
