Caren Krutsinger March 22, 2021 at 1:52 AM It is so sad that a funeral has not been a real funeral for over a year! Incredibly accurate, my friend. Line Gauthier March 22, 2021 at 6:48 AM thanks for your visit, Caren ~

Tom Cunningham March 16, 2021 at 9:58 PM Ive attended a couple since lockdown and they just didn't seem real with only ten present. Hope you're well Line. Tom Line Gauthier March 17, 2021 at 12:22 PM These certainly are strange times indeed, Tom ~
