Saratoga vets
« on: September 02, 2020, 04:47:23 PM »
Are any of these guys dropping their prices.  My income dropped 50%.  Feed man gave me big discount, blacksmith took a small cut, grooms are being paid less (I don't know how they can survive), etc.

Just a quick suggestion , from someone who has been around older people in their later years.

They really appreciate a visit............ ..get a letter.........ev en just a short note to tell them You recall how good they were at their job..or how they helped you........

These letters rarely are sent

A couple of you said nice things about Doc.......why not TODAY...find out whre he is and send a card

He would really like that

My Mother was in a home..and some of her co habitants......mi ght only see their family 2 or 3 times a year

I visited almost daily...and besides  sitting with my mother..I always spoke to the ones who NEVER had a visitor

Their faces would lite up

Hope some of you guys step up...and let us know what happened

Well done. Now they will be lining up outside the old folks home getting the poor guy to write prescriptions. I mean visiting him.
There is only one Minister in Harness Racing and his name is WEED!
