Sorry to hear about your best friend intruder.

Looks like I'll be there without the car AGAIN. It's still not all together and the borrowed trailer deal fell through.

I am very sorry to hear that. There isn't much anyone can say to make you feel better. My prayers go out to you and your family, God Bless!!
