Ed,
GREAT JOB DUDE. Wonderful news.
Since you are the first person that answered me when I signed up here 2 years ago I have to admit that I am being somewhat selfish.

Keep it up

Ed,
What a wonderful post and message. Thank you so much for sharing such an uplifting message - I have been browsing the posts - not sure if I still belong here since David's death. I always cry, but today I am excited at your post and think I will stop today on yours. I look forward to hearing of you celebrating many of your anniversaries!
WAY TO GO! YOU ARE WINNING!

All my best,
Tonya
