I guess this is where this goes.  
A few hours ago a plane went down in Tennessee. On board was my brother-in-law. He was the VP of the Seventh Day Adventist Church down there. Details are still leaking in, but his body was recovered. He was the one who performed our marriage ceremony. He and my wife’s sister were getting ready to come up here for the holidays. My Sister-In-Law is, of course, in bad shape. My wife and I are about to head out for Georgia where they live. I don’t know why I posted this, just wanted to get the news out there in some inexplicable urge, I guess.

Deepest sympathies to you and your family.

I wish I knew something more comforting to say, but it all sounds cheese ball in my head. My heart goes out to you.

Chicken kisses.
