High school classmate of mine. I was looking forward to seeing him again at our 50 year reunion in September.

I read that as "he is ill" and I was thinking, um, what?

Sorry you didn't get to see him again Kusch.

Oh, Kuschie, I just saw that report and immediately thought of you. I always think of him as ol' Minot Mathers. Weird, huh? Just like you probably still remember my birthday....ha!

Speaking of weird....you were the actually my second thought, the first was that was the same age at which my dad passed. And I was thinking of him at the moment (not that I don't think about him every day) because my previous email was about Amazon Prime Day, which is on his birthday.

Like my dad always said... it's a small world, but I wouldn't want to paint it.
