Could not believe I'd missed this. I was in the valley that week with my brother who just had a kidney removed, cancer, and lost part of his colon to cancer, spent most of the past three weeks there. Left my power cord home and battery went dead so was without for a week. Got back and hooked it up on sat evening and the computer failed, got a new one last night.

I had a lot of PM's and a few letter's from Greg and this guy was not a complainer. I knew he had some problems but never knew about the diabetes, he took it in stride. I do have a small gift here he sent me several years ago that means even more now.

Anne, if your reading this, didn't forget you. Card in the mail.

Greg my friend. There ain't no good bye but will see you later. Gonna get me a bottle and toast ya tomorrow, first bottle in about two years.

Don, I knew there was something up with you when I didn't hear from you . Man I'm aweful sorry to hear about your brother . I sure hope he beats that damn crap . I'll be pulling for him .. I'll shoot you a PM

I missed this thread and just read it this evening.

I enjoyed Hammer's posts and his sense of humor, I'm sorry to read that he had health problems. His light hearted posts and his perspective on reloading was refreshing.

I will miss his posts and wit.
