As some of you may know, John Noak ( AKA Lawndart) has been going thru a rough patch of road dealing with cancer. I received an e-mail from his wife, Lois, indicating that his recovery is going well, albeit slowly, and he is regaining his strength. Best wishes for a speedy recovery and I expect to see pictures of you blasting away with your new 416 Rigby in the near future  | ||

John has been a great participant on these boards and his insight and experience are missed. Here is wishing him a hale and hearty recovery! All the best John! On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died. If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch... Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son! - Rudyard Kipling Life grows grim without senseless indulgence. | |||

Best wishes for John. Just goes to prove you need to go hunting because you never know when you might not be able to for some reason. To better tomorrows. Have gun- Will travel The value of a trophy is computed directly in terms of personal investment in its acquisition. Robert Ruark | |||

John "Charlie" is one of the class acts on AR, very accomplished in many fields, medicine, a combat pilot, etc. Last time I talked with him he was caring for Tom Burgess some miles away although he was having problems himself. Hope he is improving. NRA Life Member, Band of Bubbas Charter Member, PGCA, DRSS. Shoot & hunt with vintage classics. | |||

John having some back ground with cancer myself I understand your plight! Positive thinking is the key along with your treatment! Keep your nose headed into the wind, and walk below the sky-line, and one day at a time you will lick this disease, and be back in the field doing what you love! My prayers are with you John! ..................................................................  ....Mac >>>===(x)===> MacD37, ...and DUGABOY1 DRSS Charter member "If I die today, I've had a life well spent, for I've been to see the Elephant, and smelled the smoke of Africa!"~ME 1982 Hands of Old Elmer Keith  | |||

Bro'Dart, Carrying on my family tradition, eh? I joined the club in 2010, out of the blue, consider myself cured now, just waiting to develop a different one about 20 years from now, like my Pop and my GrandPop. My grandkids call me "Pop." I'll send you a PM and see if we can doctor-to-doctor each other. Ron | |||

I am very humbled by the wonderful posts; thank you all. The chemo is awful, and I have to take it for a long time, BUT, I believe that our creator is going to let me survive. I just feel there is a lot more work (and hopefully, some hunting) still to go. John Charlie  | |||

I just hung up the phone with John two minutes ago. He is doing better, and sends his thanks to everybody for the encouragement. He feels well enough that he started remodeling their kitchen. A little at a time... | |||
