You're welcome, though I have to sit here and shake my head at how I missed the fact it was your grandmother.

I lost both of mine in the last few months. I had the signal honor of being able to give the eulogy at the funeral of my maternal grandmother. I worked my tuchis off on it, and my Uncle Mike told me I should be a preacher. I thanked him, but what I should have said is "Nothing less would have been worthy of her." And then we all did what we do after funerals in her family: Stand around and tell jokes.

Dang I miss her right now. Dad's mom too.
