Yup, I recognize that as correct spelling now.  The reason I asked is that 
I can't remember the name of a brother of the gentleman who owns the tv 
station I've worked at since '84, but this brother named Withers was 
repping an equipment supplier from down in that neck of the woods at the 
time I came in contact with him, & the last I'd heard, some sort of 
cancerous activity around the larynx was mentioned.  That was several 
years ago.  I hope its not the same person.
