Praying for you Gary. I understand your feelings. My dad passed in 1982, mom in 1990. I'm an only child of two only children, so I know the "alone" feeling.

So sorry for your loss, Garry. I hope you have family and friends who will help you get through this hard time. Do try to play that MSA as much as you can to help put you in another place for some of the time. Stevet
