Thanks so much for the replies Chris and asm.

I tried the suggested fix with the ".decode.('cp1252')" and yes that
works great for avoiding the crash - thank you again, I never would
have known to try that!

Because you described that fix as "quick/dirty", I'm also wondering if
there's any broader solution that I should consider for the longer
term to help lessen the chance of such invalid data griding my app to
a halt?   Any thoughts?
