Sara Rose was injured in an automobile accident in Colorado Springs last week. Her vehicle was hit by another driver and caused extensive damage. Sara's injuries do not appear to be life threatening but they are serious. She remains hospitalized at this time at Memorial Hospital North in Colorado Springs and will likely remain so for several more days. I know you will want join me in wishing for her a speedy recovery. Although it may not be appropriate at this time to call or visit her, the address at the hospital is 4050 Briargate Parkway 80920, and I feel certain that cards of support for Sara would be appreciated. I will try to keep you apprised, as appropriate, about Sara's well being and expected return to work moving forward. I do expect her to be out of the office for at least two months. During her absence, we are making arrangements to cover her areas of responsibility. For the time being, please feel free to address directly to me or Jane Carlsen those items you normally would address for Sara's attention .
