    Hey guys just wanted to let you know that my Grandmother passed away unexpectedly this morning at the ripe old age of 96. I have a lot of obligations in the next few days and plus we are supposed to be getting a Blizzard Thursday here in New York. I'm really sad because I wanted her to be here for my Wedding but the Grim Reaper waits for no one. I will still be posting but won't be on Social Media for Trade Updates. Hopefully Ron and Tom can take over for a couple of days.

    ...Lil, our power went out a 8:00 after a storm last night so I'm sorry that I'm just now getting this news. Sorry to hear about your GrandMother and I know how tough things can be at a time like this but like I always say, "NOTHING is more important than family"....and I'm sure you and your family will find a way to deal with this unfortunate event in your lives.

    ...and don't worry about this place...between myself and my second in command Totus, we'll be just fine...lol. (j/k, sorry, couldn't resist)

    Hang in there Lillie, it's always a blessing imo, to pass in one's sleep, that's how Mom went on the morn of Mother's Day 013, peacefully in her sleep as bacon was frying, last thing she smelled, put her right into heaven....

    "Time waits for no one" indeed...

    a little sideline music, all passing requires great music...epitaphs...
