Stan, if it's OK with you I would like to share something private.

For many months I sent Gene handwritten notes and always received a reply. Nothing special, just everyday small talk. I always signed off...Your friend in Oklahoma.

Gene, rest well and know how much you meant to so many...Your friend in Oklahoma, Mick.

This was somewhat expected as he had lost more ground the last few days. I know I have your best wishes and prayers at hand and appreciate the kind thoughts. Won't have too much time to lurk today in order to make arrangements etc. My sisters and I had won the lottery in the parents department so say a little prayer for Gene today and go hug your loved ones. Thanks All - Stan
as you already know. Thoughts an prayers Stan.

Update on this. It is a feature and not a bug. Your post signature will only post once per page instead of every post as you’re used to. This was done to keep folks from having to scroll as much. You never knew of the labour savings that HDF is affording you did you?

Now all we have to do is teach people the use of ellipses when quoting and how to simply post a link to an article INSTEAD IF POSTING THE ENTIRE EFFING THING.
