Thirded. Thank you for starting this thread. I wanted to disengage from the Nazi thread because it was making me furious, but I couldn’t stay away because I wanted to see an update about Sailboat’s wife.

Best wishes to you both. Hoping for some good news soon.

I am glad as well that this thread is started.

Sailboat\*\*, if there’s anything we can do, let us know. Relatives coming cross country? I could put a family up if they came by I-70.
