CONDOLENCES:   Lyle Hicks, 77, 45 King Arthur Dr., Nokomis FL formerly of Lafayette, IN, died August 26, 2009.   Survivors include his wife, Dee, three children, Carlene Fuller, Brian Hicks and Scott Hicks, all of Lafayette IN, as well as, 9 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren.   Lyle served for four years in the U.S. Air Force, during the Korean Conflict.   He worked for 41 years and retired from the Aluminum Company of America.   Lyle and Dee moved to KGP in 1996.   They bought their present home in KGC, in December 1999, and stayed for 2 years as "snowbirds".   They fell in love with the location and with KGC, and moved here as year-around residents.   Lyle enjoyed walking the beach and watching sunsets, and also riding bicycles.   He bowled in the KGC bowling league for several years.   His favorite hobby was woodworking and he made many furniture pieces.   Memorials may be made to Tidewell Hospice and Palliative Care, 5957 Rand Boulevard, Sarasota FL 34238.
      A memorial service will be held in the clubhouse today, at 2:00 PM

HEALTHLINE:   Here's an update on Gloria Whisonant.   She has been having Positional Vertigo for the past 7 weeks. Her primary care Dr. sent her to the ENT specialist who did an ENG Test (inner ear and balance) and was unable to find anything wrong.   Her primary care Dr. is now sending her to a neurologist, to see if he can determine the cause and look for a remedy. Her vertigo is OK when she looks ahead or side-ways, but up and down makes her real dizzy. Prayers will be greatly appreciated. No cards necessary, as our forwarded mail gets messed up.       ---Vince Caudy.
