Dave's mother passed away on Monday and Dave (TRRDEDEAN, one of the MLs for Naperville region) is in Florida. We're not sure when he'll be back or when he'll be at write-ins in Plano. Our thoughts are with him and his family at this time of loss.

Thanks everyone for your kind expressions of concern, prayers and virtual hugs. It's been a difficult time and I've found writing to be a beneficial diversion even while still supporting my father and my family.

Thank you all again,

Dave
AKA TRRDEDEAN

My sympathies. I know how hard it is to lose a parent. No matter how old you are, it's never easy :(.
