    each time I have posted I have meant to mention smoky. so I am correcting that error now. I will light a candle tomorrow in Eric's memory and for strength for Smoky and her children.
    I have just remembered a virtual candle site. so I have also lit one there and set up an OS group if anyone would like to do the same.

    just click on an empty candle to leave a message. if you click on the lit ones it tells you the message left.

    Well, I can't keep up with this thread today and keep checking to see if Smoky has posted, so I'll just post now to say if you do manage to come on later Smoky, I hope today went as well as it could and you and the children spent some precious time with Eric. I'll be thinking of you all tommorrow and praying that the day itself goes ok. Remember all your OS friends are thinking of you and please contact me any time you need to talk.

    I can only echo what HJ has said
    Smokey I've been thinking of you and the children today and I hope that everything goes as well as can be expected tomorrow
    (((((((((hugs))))))))))) to you all
