Update from Past President Dechert: Father Stegman has been moved from ICU to a surgical suite late Monday evening. While in ICU he accumulated a lot of water in his lungs. He has set up in a chair and taken food (Jell-O) for the first time in a week.

As always Father Stegman wishes to "Thank all the KWVA Members" for their concerns and prayers.

Let us all continue to think about and pray for his recovery.

I also wish to Thank Col Dechert for his report for I know we all wish to be informed of Father Stegman's recovery.
