Thursday, May 30, 2002 -- 12:28:51 (EDT) Name: Kris Hopkins -- Email: khopkins@mail.colgate.edu Location: Clinton, NY USA Take care, and we'll hope we don't have to wait for another 20th reunion to see you all again! ;-) Love, Kris, Rob, Emily, Danny, and Laura Hopkins Tuesday, May 28, 2002 -- 12:01:05 (EDT) Name: Jane Stepnitz Monday, May 27, 2002 -- 15:19:26 (EDT) Name: Jean Watson -- Email: jl_watson100@hotmail.com Location: Zoar, OH USA I've read your website frequently, but for some unknown reason I just decided that today was the day to send a note. Your Mom and I grew up together in Oberlin, and it seems like we've been friends forever. Right now Alex, my 7yr old son, and his dad are floating around in a paddleboat on our pond - Alex likes to try and catch the many frogs that live there. So far he's only caught the tiny ones (not much bigger than your thumb!), but he's just as much a fighter as you seem to be, and I'm sure he'll catch one of the big guys soon. I love reading all the notes here - some from people I know but haven't talked to in years, and some from people I've never met, but know they must be special since they're friends of yours. Keep up the great work with your treatments, and we'll keep sending our prayers and positive thoughts to you. Love, Jean Sunday, May 26, 2002 -- 18:48:37 (EDT) Name: Ruth Ann Church Location: Ratingen, Germany Hearing about your Gallup Park B-day party almost makes us homesick! Weather is just as strange here in Germany sometimes, though. That is so cool that Gemini was there! I think they've become Simon groupies! Glad to hear the good news of smaller tumors. We'll keep praying! -Ruth Ann, John, Noah & Isaac Thursday, May 23, 2002 -- 21:30:52 (EDT) Name: tracey metry -- Email: metry@aaps.k12.mi.us Location: ann arbor, mi Tracey, Paul, Jori and Kyin Thursday, May 23, 2002 -- 18:52:31 (EDT) Name: Jane Bishop -- Email: jebish@umich.edu Location: Ann Arbor, MI Love to all, Jane P.S.

If I'm lucky, you'll take a break from your medicine and come to visit Grandma and Grandpa in Oberlin this weekend. Grandpa is getting a big award from the place where he worked. I hope you can come see it. If you are there, maybe we can visit. I would like to meet you. Our prayers continue to come your way! Have a great day!

I have had you and your wonderful family in my prayers. I was very excited that the CT Scan you endured on May 10th showed great signs of improvement. I have also written a prayer intention in our book at St. Andrew's Church in Saline on May 19th. You and your family will continue to be in my prayers and I will visit your website again. God Bless!

"I want to see you". love, Madi Simon, "I have my thoughts in my head to give you a hug to make you better" says Lexi after telling me "Mom,mom, I know just what I want to tell Simon". Simon, we were away camping (way up north-very close to the Canadian border) on the actual day of your birthday but, you were certainly in our thoughts. We hope you had a fun weekend. 5 years old WOW! We love you all and hold you all closely in our thoughts and prayers.

While I'm not Jewish myself, I like the idea of celebrating a first harvest, because a harvest makes me think of "life" and "hope." And that makes me think of you, too, because you're so very full of both of them! :-) So enjoy your special day, and know that a lot of people around the world are celebrating the day with you! Love, Kris, Rob, Emily, Danny, and Laura Hopkins P.S. I'm so excited: my family and I are going to Oberlin next weekend for my reunion! Maybe we'll see some of your Oberlin family members or First Church friends while we're there. Bye!

We are soooooooo psyched to hear the news about those tumor balls getting smaller. Congratualtions to the runners, Markus and Miriam and Happy Mother's Day to you Mary --a very special mom. We love you all so much! Madi, Lexi, Lawrie and Curt Sunday, May 12, 2002 -- 14:36:02 (EDT) Name: Trish Beckjord -- Email: trish.beckjord@smithgroup.com Location: Ann Arbor, MI USA I have just visited your website for the first time and think it is just a great place! How wonderful to have your very own web address where we can all get news of you and see pictures of your adventures and you can get messages from us! I particularly liked the pictures of the birds from your visit to the Toledo Zoo. I have heard it is a wonderful place and I think the pictures of your trip confirm this! I have a birdfeeder in my backyard that I watch while I sit in my kitchen and I see lots of birds and squirrels that come to visit. Sometimes they're pretty funny to watch, particularly when the little red squirrel chases the bigger fox squirrels away. He can just run lickety-split! There's a big black cat that stops by too, that makes everything run lickety-split. I am also excited to hear the good news that your cancer is getting smaller. (You must be very glad to hear this too...) So all of your hard work and the help of all of people helping you and thinking about you must be doing its job! Last week I went camping for the women's retreat at church and we all sent lots of love and positive thoughts to you and Miriam and your Mom and Dad while we were there. So when you go to the hospital this week remember all those good thoughts and prayers that everyone is thinking about you! Love, Trish Sunday, May 12, 2002 -- 10:09:40 (EDT) Name: The Hoetkers -- Email: ghoetker@uiuc.edu Location: Champaign, IL USA Keep up the good spirits. We're thinking of you.

A: Because he learned how to unwind! (And here comes our personal favorite....) Q: Why do cows wear bells? A: Because their horns don't work! More later. In the meantime, keep smiling, keep growing and getting stronger, and (because you're so good at it already!) keep that volcano filled with all sorts of wonderful things like life and love! Our very best to all of you, Kris, Rob, Emily, Danny, and Laura Hopkins Tuesday, May 07, 2002 -- 09:01:34 (EDT) Name: Liza Burger -- Email: ltburger@hotmail.com Location: Ithaca, NY We thought of you today as we were watching a pair of rose-breasted grosbeaks on our birdfeeder this morning! They were beautiful next to a bunch of goldfinches with their bright yellow jackets. Unfortunately, though, some bird decided to poop RIGHT THROUGH our screen and onto our front door this morning! Noone is volunteering to scrub it off, so I guess I'll have to do that today! We are keeping you in our prayers and sending lots of love and positive vibes your way this week as you get your tests done. Please give lots of hugs to your mom, dad, and Miriam...and a great big one to yourself! love, Liza, Mike, Jolan and Jenna Tuesday, May 07, 2002 -- 00:42:50 (EDT) Name: Jim Olson -- Email: jolson@fhcrc.org Location: Seattle, WA I hope you feel all the prayers & hope that your friends are sending. Here comes a big email hug too! Sarah, Amy & I camped out in the front yard on Friday night. Getting ready for a camping trip to the Olympic Peninsula this weekend. We're going to look for star fish, anemones, sponges and fish in the tide pools and go for a hike in the rainforest. When we're done, we'll find the hot springs & take a nice warm bath. I think about you every day.
