I’ve been thinking lately what effect the loss of someone so close would have. I think I would be devastated. I have to admit I’m not prepared to handle the fallout. Prayers for the family whole family.

Ross, my heart goes out to you...I know what it's like to lose your partner after so many years. She was quite a lady and I really enjoyed talking with the two of you... both at our various gatherings and when I visited you at your place. Our door is always open if you ever feel like stopping on the way to/from Rhinelander, or if you just want to take a little drive north for some company. (this really got to me buddy)  Cry

I've been putting off replying to this thread because I couldn't think of any words that I could put together that might ease your pain.

Realizing that, may my words of condolence at least provide you comfort.....
