Jesse Hyland, one of our founding members, long time board member and inductee himself suffered a stroke this past Sunday evening, then fell and broke his right hip. Sonnie, his daughter told us "Jesse spent the weekend in the hospital, where he ran into some complications due to medication and his age, so they were unable to perform surgery on the hip until yesterday."

Sonnie was up to see Jesse today and was pleased to say "he'd been up taking a few steps, and had lunch so given the very risky surgery (due to Jesse's age and health issues) the next few weeks are critical, but overall he's doing amazing. He's maintaining good spirits and that signature laugh of his - appearing to take this all in stride".

Jesse will remain in the Foothills Hospital (unable to see visitors due to Covid19 restrictions) but we're so pleased to hear "things appear to be on the mend" for this very special man. Our thoughts are with him and his family for a safe, healthy and speedy recovery.
