So now those of you who were scratching your heads and thinking it was rather odd that I started a thread like this "out of the blue." Well, it wasn't out of the blue, but most of you couldn't have known that. A few days previously, Cletis had given us the latest report and that he figured it wouldn't be too much longer. Well, I got fairly depressed about it for a bit and thought about how after someone dies, we all sit around and share stories and say things that, in retrospect, it would have been nice to have said to a friend while they were still around to hear it. So without letting too many cats out of the bag, that's what I tried to do -- get folks to share some nice thoughts that Cletis could read to see how much we all truly cared for him and valued his friendship and support. I think we did that, so thanks to all who chimed in. I think it meant something to him.
Thank you, Charlie, and God Speed. See you in Glory Land, my brother.
