Sadly I will be away from the org for an extended time as 2 weeks ago my brother was found dead in Africa, and yesterday my mother died - so I will be in England for quite a while. I'll catch up when I get back!

I'm so very sorry to hear of your double loss, Island Cassie. I just visited my own brother's grave a couple days ago, on the death anniversary.
