Guy Camirand update

An update from Evelyn at Perfect Magic's Facebook Page:
You can't keep a good man down! Was it last week or the week before that Guy Camirand had his triple by-pass surgery? Although we did not speak to Guy, we did get an eMail and he is doing fine. He is still in the hospital and did a 15 minute Magic Show for the nurses.

Thank for the update Evelyn!


Take good care of yourself Guy!
