To anyone who remembers… This is Tim, Persephones (Cristi) husband. The kids are doing great. John has just turned 8, and Diana will be 11 in February. I also have custody of my oldest son, Tim who just turned 14. We’re all doing well. I still feel like I got smacked in the head or something, but I’m still hangin’ in there. I’m still playing music, but not much. I don’t plan to subscribe to this board, but I did want to drop in, say “Hi”, and just let everyone know that we’re doing OK. ---

Good to hear everyone is doing well. Give the kids a hug for us. Those of us who were lucky to know her still miss her, too. ---

Good to hear it Tim! I remember that **Cristi** seemed to enjoy those silly SDMB song parodies I wrote back then… In fact, I mentioned her in the dedications in the SDMB Epic Musical thread I posted here a couple of years ago… I remember her well. Her posts always made me smile. She was very funny and upbeat all the time. She was a gifted writer and she is still sorely missed on this board to this day. Thanks for the update. . ---

[QUOTE=An Arky] Thanks for checking in. If I remember correctly, aren’t you from Dardanelle? I am, too… [/QUOTE] Close, but not quite. I’m from Mich. My Mom, Dad, and brothers were all living down there. They’re all from Craighead county area though. My folks retired and moved back down there, but to Dardanelle instead. Eventually both of my brothers did too. I, being the youngest of the lot, was the only one born and completely raised up here, making me the Yankee of the bunch. Dardanelle sure is beautiful! Especially up on top of Mt. Nebo! ---

Thanks, Tim, for the update. I’m glad to know the kids are well. And., you, too. Though I worry about you saying the music not so much. I know Cristi was so proud of your musical talent. I’ve just got no words for how she is missed, but am so glad that y’all are doing well, and going on. ---

Great hearing from someone with a Dardanelle connection, however tenuous… Go Sand Lizards! ---

Someone could maybe gift him with a membership so he could drop in to let us know how things are going from time to time, or to get a bit of homework help on an obscure question for the kids? 🙂😉 [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/persephones-family-says-hi/423710.md?page=2)
