I'm in touch with Nancy Young via email on a regular basis. She's
dealing with some health issues (not Covid) but she stopped posting here
well before that.

I haven't seen a post from Cheryl in a very long time. She might be on
the Facebook group (don't know).

l not -l is another one who stopped posting sometime last year. He
lives/lived in Saint Louis. He's the guy who used to exercise at the
YMCA then stop at an International market nearby on his walk home. He
always managed to find some interesting things there.

Here's another thing I just thought of...

Cheryl's sister had died young leaving 2 young kids.
Cheryl either took them in or at least was helping
out with them.

And then Aunt Cheryl dies young too?

Those poor kids will probably have a very cynical outlook
on life forever.

Good one, God! >:-|

Yes, I did forget that but remembered immediately after

I'm glad to hear that. She was always a pleasant
poster here.

LOL Close enough.
It was actually 40 hamburgers in the freezer at a time,
back when they had that 25 cent sale. I would buy $10 worth
at a time (plus $1 tax)

The mass quantities was odd but not for me. Once I found that
they last well frozen, I bought that way until the sale
finally ended. Early 90's I think it was.

Oh, I believe you.

Speaking of past RFC posters, please say "hi" to sf from me.
I know darn well she remembers me. She mostly hated me. lol
