It occurred to me while reading your post and the replies to it OY, that this site was founded in the aftermath of the furor of their deletion of the thread on the passing of devildeac's Dad. Even -jk has wizened over the years.

Just got in yesterday from the forest, and just now saw this thread. Sorry about your loss, Chris. I hope that hospice helped. So glad to see the Duke tribute for him. Hope you're holding up well!
Best wishes,
