*Shafe’s Surgical Update*
Family and Dear Friends, (from Facebook)
My Dad asked to me send you an update and after a long day he is just heading to the Cardiac Surgical Intensive Care Unit (CSICU) where he will be recovering from surgery. Today he received a valve replacement and quadruple bypass at St Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver.
Dr. Cheung (cardiac surgeon) updated us post-operatively and everything seems to have been successful. He will likely be released in 7 to 10 days, and on the slow but promising road to hiking, adventuring and getting into his usual trouble – now with an upgraded ticker. 
Please feel free to call or private message me as needed, and I will also be updating you all on here until our guy can be back online. Thank you for being his army of support and loving him as much as I do.
Warmly,
Ally Shafer
All the best to Shafe inside the box. I believe he critiqued my Columbia School of Broadcasting cassette in 1978/79📻
