Aggie & Doug - I didn't see this until the morning of the 23rd. Sorry to hear about your Mom, Aggie. We only have two parents. As you know, it's hard enough losing one much less two. You've advanced a generation in your family. Now you are one of the elders. My thoughts and prayers are with you...AMJ
