I have been out of commission for a while mentally and physically. My wife of 34 years passed away last week of cancer, and needless to say my attention has been elsewhere for a while. It started coming on strong before Christmas and culminated in her passing Jan 25. Our boys have been great and we have supported each other through this, and we were there when she died.
We are OK, and I will check in on you guys once in a while, but I may not participate on the forum until I get better adjusted to my new situation, not to mention deal with the hospital and doctor bills. I?m sure everyone understands.

Pokey hopes everyone finds a good project to participate in and support. There are too many incurable diseases out there.

You are right, there are too many incurable diseases out there.

Someday, we will find the answers to prevent the loss of loved ones.

If there is anything you need please don't hesitate to ask.

Its not easy starting anew, but time has a way of dulling the pain, remember you are not alone, we love you bro, and you and the boys are in our hearts and prayers.

I don't know what we can do, but if there is anything (besides praying and participating in projects to find cures for such awful diseases, which we will certainly do) please do not hesitate to ask.

Thanks to you all. I am touched.

It is amazing how internet connections can turn into friendships. My wife was an avid and dedicated genealogist. and there is one person she corresponded with over the years, who she grew to respect so much that she instructed me: ?If anything happens to me, turn over my research to her.? She never actually met this lady but years of correspondence built a deep bond between kindred spirits.

I see a lot of that going on here. Thanks again, your thoughts are truly appreciated.
