    Brian,
    I’m sorry this is a cold email instead of a phone call but I’m up north flying and will miss Deb’s service. My heart goes out to you my old friend! This has been a ridiculously tough year for you. I don’t have any words to express my thoughts and emotions. All I can say is that I would be lying if I said I can only imagine what you are going through. I simply can’t imagine it. Just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
    I’ll touch base with you when I get back.
    Ian
