I’ll soon be leaving for the funeral of my best friend, who also entered hospice last week. I can’t express my words for your sorrow Lucretia, but be sure that we empathize and offer whatever support we can summon, however feeble and inadequate, to help you get through this time of loss. ---

I’ve never met a Doper in real life, but there are many that I would like to. Nate/JC was at the top of the list. My condolences. ---
