Thank you Sebastopol Times for another great story and learning experience from one of your readers.

This is another wonderful story and reminder that it's never to late to reach out to our friends to tell them how much we love them.

Thanking you and thinking of you Dan. With death a certainty, but its timing an unknown- how shall we live?

We are certainly all in this together, and that's a comfort.
