Thank you for letting us know..I'm sorry to hear of his passing. Please forgive the inappropriateness of the posting locale, but my current phone number is (removed for privacy), and it is easier to reach me via phone or text message than computer at the moment. That may change in the next few weeks, but for now the cell phone is always with me.
