Joan, I am so sorry to learn of your husband's death. Please take care of yourself, your children and grands. I know how difficult this time is. A million or so years ago, you and I and my former partner Jeri Schwartz had a few laughs and fun times together on your wonderful program. Please keep that sense of humor and great smile. With great fondness and good memories, Helaine Fendelman
