Through the wedding stage, entering the funerals stage. Part of life...until the funeral is yours.

We just lost my mother in law an hour ago to cancer. 55 years young. Melanoma
I'm in the process of letting folks know and needed to take a Pelican break. I feel weird being online so soon, but I need to buy airline tickets and book hotels. Life is short, don't waste it!

Byron, thanks for 'letting' me hijack your thread. It obviously hit home. Sorry for your loss man. I should have said so earlier. It's been a crazy evening. Lets all hope for a better day tomorrow.
