I have retired - Pallamary

Post by mpallamary »

I hope this note finds everyone healthy and prosperous. I retired earlier this year following a debilitating stroke last November. Unfortunately, it damaged an integral part of my brain. It turns out I might have had two of them. I ended up in the hospital for a month and have paralysis on my left side and other complications.

I closed my office down and gave away a lot of literature to San Diego surveyors.

I am still trying to wrap up a few projects when the spirit moves me. I am really having a lot of problems.

On a bright note, my granddaughter Paige got married. That is hard to believe. It gives me something to celebrate!

To everyone, stay healthy and keep moving the ball forward. There is still a lot of work to do.

Mike,

One day at a time! I am semi retired, and it is quite the change after 50 years of it. I became a great grandfather six months ago.

Hi Mike,
I was aware of some of your health issues, but not all. I think of you often and miss the opportunity to continue working with you on special projects.
Not sure what has or happened to The Beach Project, but I am still available to help them out if needed up here in N. CA.
I still have some pretty cool pictures when we were on the coast, and was hoping to share with others one day.

Keep up your always positive attitude, and as mentioned, one day at a time. I will have some vino and a cigar thinking of good ole times together.

Your forever friend,
Keith Nofield, PLS

Very sorry to learn of your stroke(s) and complications, I trust you're under good care.

I still, on occasion, find myself re-reading your interview with Norm Glover. Like you, he had a fascinating and prolific career, and I'm grateful that you took the time and trouble to document some of it. Since Norm was active in my area in the late '50s, I even get to retrace some of his work now and then.
