Thanks, Karen! He was 59, he was 8 years and 3 days younger. He was over here on the first two Saturdays in May, and I had made this big crockpot of bean soup with all kinds of veggies and stuff in it. He seemed to like it, because I was answering questions about what was in it. Then on May 9, he seemed really down and I did start to worry. He made an attempt on April 22, and stayed at the hospital for six days. But he swore to me and to God he would never try again. But, it was reported to us on the 17th of May he never showed up at work all week. My son had to go and open his house with the police and they found him. I’ve never had anything so awful happen. With my husband, George, we knew it was coming in 2012. I’m sad he never got to meet Firefly. Dan loved my dogs, both guide and just pet ones. I think he just got bvery depressed with some things at work. We went to some nice concerts together in recent years. Like Kenny Rogers, Gordon Lightfoot, Paul McCartney and the Eagles. We also met the lady who was the little girl in It’s A Wonderful Life. She was 76 when we met her and he bought a picture. I’ll klways have those memories.
