My Condolences Chula.

Thanks to all. Linda's been on the phone non-stop for hours. She's got to make all of the arrangments which is keeping her busy to avoid the grieving right now. Once things settle down it'll hit her hard. She just spoke with her mom at length a couple of days ago.

Just when you thought things were beginning to turn around.

Hopes and prayers, dude. Really sorry. Life sucks.

Well, she has that. So many people, when hearing about the death of someone close to them, regret not having spoken to that person before s/he died.

My condolence to you and your wife, Chula!

My condolences Chula, you know I love you man. Stay strong, and keep Linda's mind off of things.

Again thanks!

Major kudos to Alaska Airlines. Best rate we were finding for a round trip ticket with a bunch of stupid connections was $900 based on the short notice.

I've had an AA credit card and mileage plan for about ten years. Called them, explained the situation and they got her a non-stop flight both out and back from Boston, along with an aisle seat (which she prefers), for $360. She doesn't even have to present a death certificate.

The lady on the phone who we spoke with for over a half hour couldn't have been more helpful.

And everyone I spoke with back east this morning (family and friends) offered Linda a place to stay so she doesn't have to pay for a hotel.

Huge rays of sunshine on a very dark day.
