Andres, thank you so much and I am so grateful that your son is okay and that you were able to talk to him.

Roger's old business partner and his fmaily are on the island of Margarita and we've not heard from them. We don't hear from him too often, but he is always in Caracas for business and we've both been concerned about how he and his family are, plus all of the other people whom Roger met when he worked there. Rog left his heart in Venezuela, with the kindness of the people and the beauty of the country. We are both saddened to hear of this terrible tragedy.

I, too, will write to my government officials and ask them to provide all the assistance possible, as well as pray and meditate for aid.

All the best,
