Hall of Famer Smith Hospitalized
For those of you who may not have already heard, CoSIDA Hall of Famer Larry
Smith (SID at Arkansas Tech from 1987-2005, SID at Arkansas-Monticello from
1961-1978) is in the hospital in Dallas, Texas, with a pretty severe case of
pancreatitis. It is likely he will be in the hospital until mid-February.
They're really only going to be able to observe him for the next 4-6 weeks,
at which point he'll undergo surgery and then go to the ICU, and recover
from that point for another 2-3 weeks.
For any of you who know Larry and would like to contact him to send along
your wishes, send me a PM and I will set you up with the contact info.
