Nigel Proffitt
My good friend Nigel Proffitt had a triple bypass operation today. Nigel was British and English Open Champion at mail play. He is the current 11-man ballot mail champion of the world.
Here's wishing Nigel a full and speedy recovery.

A lot of checker players have had heart problems this year. I don't know Nigel but from one checker player to another I also wish him a speedy and full recovery.

Lindus,
Yes, back in the day, Nigel was certainly known worldwide as one of the strongest mail players. Had #1 rung on many ladders. Please pass onto Nigel my best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Re: Nigel Proffitt
Hello Lindus,
I am very glad to hear that Nigel is recovering well from his triple bypass surgery.
I enjoyed many many matches with Nigel back when I was active in mail play.
He was always a tough competitor and a class act. A true gentleman.
Please tell him I said hello and express my well wishes for his continued recovery.
Best Wishes,
Dennis
