San Antonio paper and radio is reporting him in the hospital in critical condition on the news this morning.

Tex and Mazie are two of the greatest people I have ever met in this so called airplane business. My prayers are with them.

His condition was mentioned during the Friday meeting at AIRSHO. Prayers were said then and my prayers continue now. I have been enriched over the years to have met and talked with both Tex and his wife.

Like OB said...

I was just telling someone the story of when I met TEX at Wings Over Houston two years ago.

Prayers up,

A fine gentleman that I have been fortunate to know since meeting him at Breckenridge some years ago.

I think most of them would tell you to appreciate the times we are fortunate to live in. Certainly the 1940s weren't much fun.

Good luck to Mr Hill.
