Angie's gone

Postby Nick » Wed Feb 20, 2013 12:20 pm

My lovely wife of 21 years passed away Jan. 26th.

Pretty much the last two years of my life have been like a bad dream - but one of the bright spots has been the people on this forum. Lots of good info, lots of nice folks. I'm dropping off, don't have the heart to keep coming back. Maybe that'll change in the future.

Good luck to all of you. Keep up the fight, one of these days we'll defeat the beast.

May the peace of my LORD Jesus Christ be upon you,
Nick
