       After a courageous fight of five years my 59 year old husband has lost the battle.  It was an honor to help him leave this world, at home, with hospice to guide the way.  This board has been my support, my guide, my hope and my despair for 5 years.  I thank each and every one of you who come here every day and offer your knowledge and love to people you have never met.  Please tip a glass for Bob Green tonight and wish him safe travels.

            I am so sorry to hear about this.  I am glad you had hospice with you–that can make a huge difference.  I know a lot of people will be holding you in their thoughts and prayers both tonight and over the next several days and weeks.
