From Eddy Wade: Just a few minutes ago, I spoke with Sue Lefler, who advised me that Joe is once again in the Hospital in Dunn, NC - (Betsy Johnson Memorial) and IS NOT doing very well and ask that we all say a prayer.
 The basic news, as I understand it, is the cancer is no longer in remission, the new medications he was on are not proving to be the success they hoped for, the fall Joe took a few weeks ago broke a leg and cracked his spine, among other issues. He has not been eating much and has become dehydrated and is on Oxycodone which is making him "loopy". Sue says that his mobile phone is turned off. If you're close enough to visit him in the hospital, I'm sure they both would appreciate it. Most of you know that Sue's family is there in Dunn, but Joe's family is now coming in from Ohio and Florida. Sue asked me to let as many of Joe's close friends know of his condition as possible, so I encourage you to pass this e-mail along to those you think may know Joe personally. From Skip: if you would like to send a card or letter his way, you can send them to me at: Joe Lefler, c/o Roger Way, 3905 Allen St. W., Raleigh, NC 27603. I'll make sure that he and Sue get them.

Both Joe and Sue are in our prayers. I spoke with Joe just a few days ago and he told me he was not feeling well and was in pain. He has done a lot for me (and Jody) and is a wonderful sound guy. I hope things go well for him and Sue!

Add me to the list of concerned Joe fans. Joe has always been very generous with his time and insights. I saw him this past February and his sense of humor was undaunted. I will be eager to hear he is feeling better soon.

As of today (5/23) Joe has been moved into the care of Hospice. His kidneys are failing and the cancer is progressing. If you'd like to visit him or send a card he is at:
E. Carlton Powell Hospice Center 185 Pine State Street Lillington, NC 27543 Phone: 910-893-5394 There are no set visiting hours, if you go by after dark and the door is locked, just ring the bell. The staff request to please keep visits short. In talking with Sue, she ask that folks not call Joe's mobile phone as the voice mail box is full and she can't retrieve them at the moment. Also please don't send e-mails to Joe's E-mail account as there are over 600 at the moment to deal with. Please pass the news to those you know who may know Joe. You can see the CC list above as to whom all I've sent this message. Thanks to you all for your prayers at this time for our dear friend & fellow entertainer Joe Lefler......
