My two big decisions: do I push Reply (already did) and do I click on Post.
I was fortunate to meet Cindy once when I stopped into the Yatch Club (?). Back in the early days of the happy-news board there was a family attitude, where WE were the board and the owners (3) were not our concern because WE were doing the postings, the answerings, the trip reports. It was truly a happy time before Monitors got involved.
And as is often the case, I knew the board names but seldom met the people. I'm just not a social guy. But she was a ball of energy and I'm sorry this world is without her. I can also say similar things about MusicMon, who I ran into at Jessie's coffee shop an month before he did himself in. There too, in hindsight, how I wish I spent more time, got to know him better, and pumped him for information on how to deal with Negril, which Roy did for what, two decades? on a full time basis, and some of us aspire to.
Appreciate what and who is around because too soon it won't be. Keep the memories alive, and make new ones with the people you have social intercourse with.
