April 3, 2009 Email from Patti Jo Ranous:

Hi all,

The good – make that great - news is that Kyle (Ranous) is now in Atlanta, on a shuttle and headed to Ft. Benning. His flight from Germany landed about one hour ago. His training begins Sunday morning and he doesn’t know at this point what his accessibility will be. I am deeply grateful for his protection over the past many months. This next step is a huge challenge on many levels. He could probably use your prayers and good thoughts out in the universe. He’s a good man and I am very proud of him.

love,

Patti Jo (Ranous, Mother)
