John Appel ’56

John Appel ’56 — Got the 1952 pledge class picture last week from you. Great looking bunch of guys. Particularly enjoyed seeing the “White Bucks” in the front row. The roster I got from Oxford with Fraternity Fifty Seal also has my old phone number. I’ll e-mail them to correct to (727) 586-0538. You also Cc’d me on an e-mail you sent to Jim Dailey about, among other things, your visit with Don Jefferis. I was so sorry to hear of his latest decline. (Don Jefferis ’56, has been in a nursing home for the past 8 years and bedfast for most of the past 2 years.) Getting old is tough, but it doesn’t affect us equally. Those of us still doddering around need to be thankful for our good fortune! (Recent news has reached us of  John’s prostate surgery on Dec. 17th and he will be recuperating at home, 186 23rd Ave. SW, Largo, FL 33778)
