DearFriends--I have some very sad news. I lost my beloved Bob today. He had just been released from the hospital after a short stay for congestive heart failure, and 2 hours later had a heart attack. His poor body just didn't have enough strength left to fight. He wanted to be cremated. We will have a memorial service in several weeks and a private ceremony scattering his ashes on his beloved Oregon Coast later. Love to you all, Karen
