Hi all.

It's been a while but I thought some of my friends would want to know.
My wife of 45 years passed away May 25th from esophageal cancer. She was only 65.
It's been a hard road for myself and my kids but we're getting through.

I sold my big lathe and mill and went back to a mini-lathe and mini-mill. More my size.
I also finished converting my Sherline lathe and mill to CNC.
Keeping busy helps.
Unfortunately, I have no motivation to do anything else in the shop. That will take a while.

Will I get back in the shop? Will I be back to the forum? I can't say right now.
I know time heals but it can take a while.

You all take care and know that I'm lurking...infrequently perhaps...but lurking.

Stay healthy my friends.

Oh man  Zee.   I'm so sorry to hear this, my thoughts and prayers are with you.   That horrible disease has touched many, and I hate it....Like nothing else
I want you to know we're  thinking of you and love you.   You are my friend, and always will be...this forum or otherwise    Lurk if you must...but poke your head in every once in a while...just to say hi.   

My condolences to your family, and to you my friend.

Dave

Zee, this is one of those times that I just don't know what to say. I'm so sorry for the loss of your wife; my condolences to you and your family.
I have been working in the shop this afternoon and can't stop thinking about you.

Take care my friend.

Very bad news. I wish you the best as you work through these times. I do hope you'll stay involved with the forum, it isn't the same without you.
