The day began with a call from Delaware. A fellow named Ryan wanted to schedule us for the coming Friday in Lewes. That was easily done, but the moving thing to me was how the conversation changed to Marita and the words of kindness, faith and encouragement Ryan gave us to start the day.

Others have come forth with letters and personal expressions of support. We are so warmly held in your hands. It is humbling to feel the love from family, friends, colleagues and just plain nice people.

Sorry we didn't take any photos today.

Sherry came at noon to check on Marita. Thelma and Louise dropped by with some fantastic chicken soup from Kathy and a dinner from Linda for later this week. We had four on the soup at dinner and it looks like we have at least ten more hits to go.

Deniz came for dinner. She told us about her frightening experience closing her shop last night. An intruder entered the store and pocketed some items. He was approaching her in the back room when she encountered him. Apparently, and fortunately, she was more than he could handle. She managed to stop him in his tracks, empty his pockets of his haul and chase him away.
