The Ford Barn

JM 35 Sedan · 02-15-2019, 01:59 PM

I just read a post from Don Rogers daughter requesting prayers for Don. He just received word from his doctor that he will need quadruple bypass surgery. I consider Don a great personal friend and a huge contributor to the Early Ford V-8 Club, to the Fordbarn, and to our hobby in general. Please keep him and his family in your prayers.

Thank you for letting us know.

Sorry to hear that Don is not travelling too well at present. I first met Don back in 2009 and really appreciate his friendship over the years. His wealth of knowledge that he willingly shares is greatly appreciated. Will remember Don and his family in my thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery. This photo of Don with his 1935 Ford Panel Delivery was taken at the Grand Nationals in Dearborn last year.

Ol' Ron · 02-15-2019, 05:12 PM

Hope and pray Don is OK, not many of us old flathead guys left.
Take care Ol' Ron

mhsprecher · 02-15-2019, 05:39 PM

Best wishes to him. A pretty routine surgery these days, so he should be fine after his recovery.

Zeke3 · 02-15-2019, 05:44 PM

I met Don last Summer at the Benson Ford Research Library after the Grand National meet. He is very helpful with sharing his experience and knowledge with others. I have been through that surgery four years ago and pray for a successful outcome for Don.
