So very sorry to here this, Can Larry get phone calls for well wishers ? Please keep us up to date on his condition or find out if it's acceptable to call him at the hospital since no visitors are allowed in. Larry is such a gentleman and such a wonderful representative of the club. Prayers sent out to him and his loved ones for a speedy recovery.

Larry Marcum Update:
Many of you have probably heard by now that this past Saturday (March 21, 2020) Larry Marcum was riding with friends, on his 650 GS, went off the road in a curve close to Santa Fe, TN and it appears he hit a tree after going down an embankment. He was life-flighted to Vanderbilt in serious condition and I am glad to report that as of this morning (Monday) he is doing much better. Needless to say, Larry is on heavy pain medication at the moment. Seems Larry broke some ribs, had some internal bleeding and injuries but the major and immediate concerns are much better and he is on a path to recovery.
With the Coronavirus-19 and a "no visitors" policy at the hospital, even his wife and children have not been allowed to see him so they talk to Larry and the medical staff over the phone. Pat is giving me a condition update each day and she is fine and she has no current needs. There are many of us willing to jump in should she require anything and I will ask club members for help if we see there is something we can do. Pat did say blood donations might be helpful as Larry did use over 5 pints when he first arrived. Not sure where someone would go to give blood these days. The Red Cross has been suggested.
Right now is probably not a good time to contact him but sure he would love to hear from his friends a little later. For the moment, please contact me and I will share with you what I can.
Please keep Larry and his family in your thoughts and prayers
Douglas Pittman
