Dear Dale, I am sorry that your wife died. I did not know her or about her death until you mentioned it to me at Massoud's wake. Thank you for letting me know. I wonder if she went to the ER not only the day she died but before when you and I were both there with our spouses, because I was out of Iowa the day she died in 2010. I'm hoping happy memories now predominate over your loss. With all best wishes, I am
