Ted -

This should all be moved to the forum, but a word of explanation first.  We
in the USA are going through the five stages of grief and loss.  I, for
one, still cannot believe what happened on Tuesday night.  I have not
recovered.  We have to go through 1. Denial and isolation; 2. Anger; 3.
Bargaining; 4. Depression; 5. Acceptance.

I'm not sure I'll ever get to acceptance, but I'm in anger right now.

Yes, I've been going back through old photos and posting some on FB.  That
is some consolation to me that there was a past and there might be a future.
