Saw him race many a time, a few of those times with a team mate known in these parts as Superduke.

I will send a few prayers his way for a successful surgery.

Thanks for the heads up.

Hello from the Beale family, we are still at the hospital had a few ruff days but the old man came thru very well from the surgery. He should be getting out of ICU tomorrow and hopefully soon after that going home. Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers. FYI he is already signing autographs for the hospital staff !!!
