My heartfelt condolences to you and your family.
You know, this is what I really love about gun people, and this site in particular.
At other, non-gun, sites where I've posted in the past, the moderators would have either immediately stricken your message (and the messages regarding my mother), or we would have caught a LOT of flack from other participants.
For the most part, gun owners, and particularly those here, are good, caring people.

Beware the man with the S&W .357 Mag.
Chances are he knows how to use it.
