Hello, George,

We will all be truly saddened, not to "see" you at the head of this "family table;" but we all realize that the time comes to try to pass on the mantle to someone else, willing to take it up.

Thanks for all of your kind words and, above all, for the caring,  you have shown towards all who have participated in this group for so long. I, personally, will feel a sense of loss, as will many others, that this community will likely disband. But out of this group have arisen a number of lasting friendships, some personal, some "merely" online, which is a great tribute to you, a true "southren gentleman."

Ron
