Larry and Heather,
I am so sorry to hear about Carol. I knew when I hadn't heard from her that she might not be well. You are in our thoughts and prayers. She was such a special part of my life. Dave

Hey AB,
The sunshine that I've been sending just wasn't enough. Our friendship has meant so much to me. I am a better person because of it. We were connected in so many ways. JT, patchouli,... I will miss your advice, your spirit and the Ohio stories.
