Too many “In Memoriams” this week. Sadly, the bodies of Chuck & Charley Morris have finally been recovered from an Arkansas lake where they went kayaking. A friend has set up a GoFundMe for the widow and sister. Please donate whatever you can: http://www.gofundme.com/f/support-for-Jenny-Thomson-family
