Update

Judy, Dave's wife, says Dave is insisting the money be used for a scholarship. Well, I told Dave he can do whatever he wants with it, so he can establish a scholarship, take flight lessons, or get some glamor shots taken - In other words, whatever he wants! Apparently, he is doing very well and we may see him up here in Sheridan in the next few weeks. If he does make it to the tournament, he can be the dealer at the championship table. If Dave plays, the tournament will last an hour. I've heard stories about his poker skills.

The suggested name for the scholarship is "The Dave Marquith I'm Not Dead Yet" scholarship. I suggest "The Bat Grant." You know, I may be able to get a Batman reference in on every post. We'll see.

I'll be setting up a bank account for donations on Monday, and I'll post information on how to donate here when I have it. Hopefully, a person will be able to just go to the bank and contribute.

I'll be posting some links about CML, which is the form of Leukemia that Dave has been diagnosed with. I'll keep everyone up to date and in the meantime, to the Bat Cave! I have lots of work to do, and only 27 hours to do it in. It's as Dave always tells us when we complain about assignments - "There are 27 hours in the day. You just need to find 3 of them."
