I am always a bit nervous when I see this thread pop up. Hope to see Mike posting himself. And to see what he has to say about Becks. 😛 Of course, I will be happy to see him posting again. ---

The death in the family was my MIL. She died the day after I was admitted… I heard about it this past Saturday, so most of you have known longer than I, but 95 was a good run. ---
