Gentle Spiders, Apologies for forwarding to both lists, but I know that not everyone who knew (or "knew", electronically) Dearl reads the Lace-chat. Dearl was a fellow Virginian and we have met -- though only once -- in real life, years ago, through Arachne. She didn't post all that often but some of you may remember her tag-line: "My idea of housework is to sweep the room with a glance".
I'm including Roy's e-mail address in my forward, in case anyone would like to send him a message. Begin forwarded message: > From: Roy Kniskern <r...@rbnet.com> > Date: March 31, 2011 9:43:18 AM EDT > To: t...@rockbridge.net > Subject: Lace mailing list - LaDearl (Dearl) Kniskern > > Hello Tamara.
