Rob,
Thanks for showing. Sad to see Andre like that. Who is the other man in the chair between him and Harry Everts in the last photo? Also, how is Georges Jobe doing? I heard he had a bad crash a while back.

Rob,

The other guy in the chair was one of the main organisers.
Georges Jobe is doing okay. He walks with a pronounced limp and is
still very weak down his right hand side, as evidenced by his weak handshake.
Just glad we didn't have another legend in a wheelchair.

Georges Jobe chatting with Roger DeCoster.
