Dear Friends: We know many of you have been trying to reach our dad and we’re sorry we haven’t reached out sooner. Our main focus has been taking care of him as he was hospitalized with pneumonia. He is doing better but still recovering.

We’ll post more later but for now we wanted to share some amazing news!

With the help of his nephew, Jared Wheeler, City Council has unanimously approved Krams Avenue to be renamed Jack Wheeler Way. Please mark your calendars for Saturday, December 7 to celebrate this amazing event. More details to follow.
