In Response To: Other: Lost my wife (joe)

I'm sorry for your loss - a large hole has opened up in your life and it will take awhile to fix, if ever. Condolences from unknown people on a web site might seem strange to some but it appears you've discovered what I have (while lurking as I built my Pygmy AT and posted a few newbie questions - getting quick helpful responses each time) - which is how much the folks who really support this board provide a sense of community and the obvious caring, for boat building and more so for each other by continually and unselfishly offering advice, encouragement and even gentle criticism when needed. We've seen wedding announcements, birth announcements, graduations, and now - your wife passing away. Sometimes the circles of life revolve in not-so-traditional orbits. So far, all I've done on this board is lurk and gratefully accept the occasional advice; someday I hope to have enough experience where I can also contribute.

Take care, each day does pass. Continue to visit and let us know how you're doing.
