Good Evening All, Here is a quick update on Joe. Today, Monday, (Dec 29) Joe had surgery to remove his gall bladder. It was a successful albeit long procedure. It took two hours for the surgery and two hours for him to recover. Once he was back in his room he was beginning to sound and act like the Joe we all know and love. He of course is having surgical pain but that will end and he will be fine. Thank you all for your prayers and well wishes. One good thing that came out of all this is that I was able to speak with Joe's mom more on the Grace of God ( This is an on going conversation we have from time to time). She is very close to grasping it and I pray will one day decide that she needs God's grace in her life. She was raised with a works approach to salvation and that you have to do something to earn heaven. Please pray for her understanding. Thanks again, Dannette Revesz, Joe's wife
