Of course my week is not as bad as some of our forum members recently, but I am typing this from the minivan on the way to my great grandmother's funeral. She was 93, I think she lived a full life. It has been 20 years since I have seen her or any of my relatives in that neck of the woods.

On the less serious side of things, I got a box in the mail yesterday from my dad and brother in law. it "HAD" a pair of 1.5" aluminum quench plates in it, and a half dozen industrial D2 slicer blades that had been cutting onions for the past two years. They go dull, they get replaced. They were dull, and on the way to my place. NOT SO MUCH. those suckers punched out the side of the box and all the USPS delivered was an empty box. Way to go above and beyond with that delivery. Now I need to figure out what to do to get another pair of quench plates. Ugh.
 
My condolences on your family's loss.

Hate it when shippers lose things. My brother once shipped me a tube that contained the double barrels of my grandfather's 12 ga. shotgun. All I got was an empty tube. You have to wonder why the shippers can't add up an empty box and a pile of contents.
 
Gixxer , my family will keep you in our prayers.93 years is along time brother, not many of us will ever see that age.
