    My prayers and thoughts are with each of you in the loss of a great lady. I remember ages ago when I was single and Donna and Harold would visit my apartment. It took me a while to realize what was happening but after they were over I would have trouble finding my TV remote. I found out later that Donna would think that my dusting abilities needed improvement. As punishment she would hide my remote. I would find the remote in the oddest places. I would wonder why in the heck did I put it there. I thought I was ready for the funny farm at a young age.
