Jerry and Kim, I was truly saddened to see your mother had passed away. May her memory live long in you and your families. (Dan and I were good friends when we were in elementary school--I was shocked and saddened to see that he had passed away 6 years ago. I have many good memories of him teaching me how to play chess with him and we both interested in stamp collecting at about the same time.)
