Friends,
Please tolerate me again. Jeanie's and my friend, Valerie Still is a great and courageous lady in a tight spot. Her husband has left, they are now divorced, and she is trying hard to maintain a great home for her and Aaron. She has been unsuccessfully trying to sell her home in Powell and will, by God's great grace, obtain her Phd from Ohio state in June of 2009. I sent the-mail below out to several mutual Kentucky (mostly) friends today. Prayers of support and visits to her website are the most encouraging things we can do presently.
Hey Cat Fans,
One of our own and the Columbus Quest American Basketball Leagues' very best people has a new blog I would like for you to visit.
Go to www.vstill.blogspot.com . She just started this and she would be warmed by the thoughts of the Kentucky or any of the Columbus community.
Is Valerie Still special? I guess so! If you consider that she was three times an All American at UK and Most Outstanding Player for the twice ABL Champion Columbus Quest. She is ahead of our man, Dan Issel, as the highest basketball scorer in Kentucky history. Check out the photo on her blog. She looks just as fantastic today.
She is in a tight spot currently as she is now divorced but raising a truly fine son, Aaron on her own. For some reason her ex is being no help. She has been trying to sell her property in Powell with no success to date. The courageous lady will receive her PhD form OSU in the June, 2009. She is currently working hard in her studies and in her teaching.
Jeanie and I love Valerie and Aaron. We offer not much more than our devoted friendship and love for this precious beauty of God's. Join us in prayers for them and visit her blog and let her know that she counts in our lives.
Would that the compassionate Coach Gillispie could help in her plight.
Valerie- Your blog is terrific!
Sam
