    "In Memoriam....." forum

    This community has lost several members. We post up threads in their honor and share our memories of the departed members. We dont necessarily forget these people, but after a short time, the thread gets lost in the history of the site.

    I respectfully suggest these "final" threads of memories have a special place and not be lost to cyber space.

    Update on this.

    I just bought his Marauder. He is still hanging on in a nursing home. Darla visits him just about every day. He can come off of the list.

    No, it's fine. I thought he had passed, too. The outlook was grim and I lost touch with his wife until last week.

The family will be present on Sunday from 3-6 PM at the (Harris Hill Chapel) AMIGONE FUNERAL HOME, INC., 8440 Main St. (near Harris Hill Rd.).
