I never had the good fortune to meet Mrs. V but she sounds like a wonderful woman. I can't believe it's been 5 years since her passing. You are in my thoughts today SV as you, I am sure, reflect back to memories this wonderful lady. I couldn't open the picture link in your first post, but remember in particular a BB meet (I didn't attend) in which you and she bought wigs that everyone wore. I can't recall the story behind it, but it was a great picture. Also, I didn't realize or remember the signature you referred to: "F or me there is only my wife." I have tears in my eyes. God Bless you my friend TIS

It will be five years on May 26, eight days from now. But she is still in my thoughts, constantly.
For eighteen years (married for sixteen) I was the luckiest man in the world.

I can't recall the story behind it, but it was a great picture. The link didn't work for me either. Don't know why - unless it has something to do with a BB update that Geoff made at some point after the link was posted. Anyway, this link should work: A Motley Crew It wasn't wigs - it was moustaches. So, we all became "Moustache Petes" that night at the Italian Restaurant sit-down in Staten Island back on February 22, 2006. Quite a memorable evening. Signor V.

Yes, that's the picture I was referring to. What a great group all right. Sorry I missed that event. It looks as though all had fun. Thanks SV TIS
