January 27 of this year, I was driving on 101 with Justin in the back seat of my Tacoma truck, I was hit from back. The Tacoma rolled over and it was totaled. Although Justin and I went to Stanford emergency for several hours, we both are O.K. God was looking after us! My life was changing even before this accident…

My friend Bob Henshel past away on April 5th of this year. He was a fine man! Many will miss him. By the time he was diagnosed with pancrea cancel on January 15th or so,  he was already very weak, and it only took two and half months for him to say good bye to his family & friend.

Typical housing for workers and the families. It is a single sheet of corrugated metal for the wall and the roof for these housing, and it gets hot and cold depend upon the outside temperature.

Recently, he had called me to help him deliver some bathroom supplies (soaps, shampoo, combs, and etc…) to veterans hospital in Palo Alto, apparently he and his wife Gale, had collected 5 truck loads of supplies during the last 4 weeks or so. We had a convoy of 5 trucks to the Veterans’ hospital that morning. Some might easily discount their efforts, and say many people will do the same, but in these day and age, how many of us will spent time and follow through to help out the needy people. Two thumbs up for Gale & Robert Henshel!
