Anyone use FileZilla to upload things to the internet. I did something wrong and somehow opened a new tab - well, I actually know how I did it - should have chosen the other choice -- anyway, I can't even find the new "tab" nor can I get it closed. Now, the things are going to "an unspecified new site" -- OH GOODNESS -- any HELP would be greatly appreciated !!

I suspect the Doc came to town to make arrangements and walked into the newspaper article to give his spiel. He conned the obit writer into being impressed by him. So an obit was written with basically no information about the deceased, who may have had no other family in the area. Indeed sad.

This implies that the doctor was a local who now is a traveling wholesale salesman for a drug company, perhaps his own. Traveling has apparently trimmed him down from a previously larger girth, but the writer feels he can lose more weight. And yes the column is gossip, not an obit.
Oh, thanks, thanks -- now, I can add quite a bit to his information with a note under his obit :) Added quite a bit for him - thanks all especially Sharon On 3/28/2014 3:51 PM, s.m.mills@comcast.net wrote: > He shows up in at least one family tree at Ancestry.

That sounds like a good deal, Sharon -- he stopped by and wooed 'em with his traveling drug job On 3/28/2014 3:04 PM, s.m.mills@comcast.net wrote: > I suspect the Doc came to town to make arrangements and walked into the newspaper article to give his spiel.
