Sorry to hear that. I had just started reading Wanderer's posts. Sounds like he took life by the tail and shook all the fun out of it he could!

I guess someone else is going to have to pinch hit for him and run up to see Mr. Bob and take Bob out to see mother nature.

Claire,

Ron's zest for life was and will continue to be an inspiration to us all. He loved Alaska and all it's beauty...now he's in the most beautiful place of all.

Am so very sorry for your loss, and for ours also. Wanderers posts were always among my favorites and I admired his gentleman spirit that shined through everything he said here. My sincere hope is that you find peace and some comfort in this very hard time. 'What the caterpillar perceives is the end, to the butterfly is just the beginning.' {{{Huggggggggs}}} billy

Zonabe, sorry it crashed your computer. I had a link the other day in Politics I wanted to check out and it froze mine up big time. I didn't want to copy and paste it since that is against the rules, etc. I found that poem on a bereavement page someone had done for a family member of their's. I couldn't find my funeral cards with it on them that were from my sister's funeral. They're packed away since we just got back to AK a couple mos ago.

I just clicked on it and had no problems. Has anyone else had a problem with it?
