RR, thank you for telling me that...it has made my whole week...i hope you gave the words to your friends....I am so sorry for your loss...take care.

John, Thank you, one more empty chair for the family reunion this summer...

Dave, thanks for your words...and are these the lyrics you were thinking of?

I've mended pots and made heather beesoms
I've served my time at tramping and at hawking
And I've lain there spent happed up in my tent
And I've listened to the old folks talking.
