Sad .. so sad .. John and I became fast friends in Millsboro, DE. We were simultaneously planning our time when we would both be living in the same Gull Point community with golf, beach trips, fishing and dog walks. My prayers are with his family. There is no way to share Cheryl's grief except to say, "You're welcome anytime." The last time John and I spoke we both walked away with a smile. I will think of John often.
