An Opportunity to Truly Help

@ Chris please know that I am continuing to pray on behalf of you and you wife.
I am so glad she has been able to receive medical diagnoses and assistance!
My wife and I are mindful of the situation your wife has been in , since this is a medical issue beyond her control.
This is a tough situation for her , ( and of course you ) . But God is good ! He can continue to love and support your family !
Please pass on to her, we care for her and want the best for her ! Our god can totally restore and build up your family!
May God bless you guys and strengthen you to have a great life together !

Please remember this . The Lord is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble; And He knows those who trust in Him. Naham 1:7
 
UPDATE

The engine's done and going in this weekend. It'll be loaded up into my truck today along with all the bits and I'll be taking it up to @reddvltj 's place first thing in the morning. @Wildman is driving over there from his place today, and we'll work on getting the motor back in the Camry tomorrow.

Happy Veteran's Day!

The full monte... just saying ya'll did the job.(y)

No one is more professional than I. I am a noncommissioned officer, a leader of Soldiers. As a noncommissioned officer, I realize that I am a member of a time honored corps, which is known as "The Backbone of the Army". I am proud of the Corps of noncommissioned officers and will at all times conduct myself so as to bring credit upon the Corps, the military service and my country regardless of the situation in which I find myself. I will not use my grade or position to attain pleasure, profit, or personal safety.

Competence is my watchword. My two basic responsibilities will always be uppermost in my mind—accomplishment of my mission and the welfare of my Soldiers. I will strive to remain technically and tactically proficient. I am aware of my role as a noncommissioned officer. I will fulfill my responsibilities inherent in that role. All Soldiers are entitled to outstanding leadership; I will provide that leadership. I know my Soldiers and I will always place their needs above my own. I will communicate consistently with my Soldiers and never leave them uninformed. I will be fair and impartial when recommending both rewards and punishment.

Officers of my unit will have maximum time to accomplish their duties; they will not have to accomplish mine. I will earn their respect and confidence as well as that of my Soldiers. I will be loyal to those with whom I serve; seniors, peers, and subordinates alike. I will exercise initiative by taking appropriate action in the absence of orders. I will not compromise my integrity, nor my moral courage. I will not forget, nor will I allow my comrades to forget that we are professionals, noncommissioned officers, leaders!
