Health Update

Sheila, Scott Buck's wife, was severely injured last weekend when a car went through the Stow Post Office's front doors and she was pinned in the lobby.  She is in Trauma Unit 2 at City Hospital, and after all she's been through, is in good spirits.  She has had several surgeries and will have an extended rehab.
