I’m sorry that I hadn’t seen this thread until now.

I’m sorry for your pain, Zeldar. I suspect that after three months your loss is painful. I remember Zoe well. I remember you too. I hope it is a bit easier for you as some time has passed.

But I remember. I will ALWAYS remember.

My response to the original OP:

My partner and I met on AOL initially; IRC a little later; and in real life in 1996. We have been partners since April, 1997. Who knew life could be so lovely? (I know you may not be feeling it right now, Zeldar, but life is—was–can be—will be------AMAZING!)

I also missed this, **Zeldar**. Please accept my condolences.
