<description><![CDATA[ Kenny,<br /><br />The post you are referring to is an old post that was dated May 2011 &amp; should have been deleted.  I apologize for the confusion and have deleted the post.  Nothing has been scheduled for MVP for this session, as there are not any open dates.<br /><br />Ruby]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ I apologize for inadvertently neglecting to post information about Percy's passing.  He will be greatly missed by his fellow APA players.  His obituary was forwarded to us recently and follows:<br /><br />NEWPORT NEWS - Robert Glancy Lerch, fondly and lovingly known as "Percy" to his family and friends, passed away Sunday, April 8, 2012. He was 71. Born in Carrollton, Ohio, Percy had been a Peninsula resident since 1970.<br />Percy retired from the U.S. Navy as a Chief Petty Officer in 1982 after 20 years active and reserve service. He also retired from Newport News Shipbuilding in 2000 after 29 years as a Quality Inspection Dept Engineer. An avid pool player, Percy was a member of the American Poolplayers Association for more than 20 years. He also was a member of the Warwick Moose Lodge.<br />Surviving are his wife of 41 years, Jean Lerch; children, Lisa Michele Ross, of Gloucester and Richard S. Schultz Jr., of Midlothian, Va.; grandchildren, Dalton Allen Ross and Taylor Michele Ross; sisters, Rose Sherrod, of Pollok, Texas, and Peggy McDonald, of Houston, Texas.<br />Percy was a devoted husband, father, grandfather and touched the lives of so many people who became his life-long friends. He and his wife enjoyed trips to the beach and cruises to the Caribbean whenever possible. The family wishes to express their thanks to his incredible network of friends for their support at this time. <br />The family will receive friends from 5:30 to 6 p.m. Monday at Berceuse Funeral and Cremation Traditions in Hampton. The gathering will be a casual affair as we celebrate Percy's life. You are welcome to come in your favorite pair of jeans and penny loafers as we say Bon Voyage.<br />Immediately following at 6 p.m., friends will be invited to share their fondest memories of Percy.<br />In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the Ronald McDonald House, Richmond, Va., at rmhc-richmond.org.<br />Arrangements are by Berceuse Funeral and Cremation Traditions in Hampton, 2609 Cunningham Dr., in Hampton, 757-825-8070. View and post condolences on our online guestbook at dailypress.com/guestbooks.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ There are 1 replies, with the last one on 04/12/2012 at 12:29:56 PM by Ruby Boyd<br />Quote:<br />Carl &amp; Shelia,<br /><br />APA would definitely like to make a contribution and will match contributions made to the family of up to $200.  Additionally, we will contribute a cue &amp; case as a prize for the tournament, and some tees for other prizes.<br /><br />We have known JR for many years and know of the struggles he has endured with his health for the past several years.  We are so saddened to learn of this latest turn of events.  It is so rare that we get a chance to tell people how we feel before it's too late.  Here is a chance to tell JR that he is loved!<br /><br />Thanks also to you &amp; Shelia for helping with this event, as Steve will be out of town, and I'm working most weekends.  <br /><br />Whether you know JR or not, here is a chance for our APA family to "pool together."<br /><br />Ruby]]></description>
