    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Maggie,

I think that letting your feelings out here is one of the best things you could do. There are obviously many members who have had similar experiences, and we can all sympathise while letting you say ANYTHING you want to without having to censor yourself for the sake of your family. Please keep on, everyone who has subscribed to this thread wants to help however we can, even if it's only by being ears.
 
I just wanted to say thank you so much to all of you who donated money, animals, etc. to help me and the kids, that was very nice of you.

Sorry I haven't been on, depression gets worse and it is upsetting to me sometimes to be here on this board. I don't know....

Thank you all, for everything.

Do what helps you get through the day hun. Each and every day must be incredibly painful and i dont blame you for avoiding a place that is going to reopen wounds that are too deep to imagine.

Just know that the members of this board, are here, if you need them. You may not know them well, or any of them really at all, but know that there are hearts here that are willing to take you in and just be there to give you whatever you might need, the people here rock, and they understand even if not fully but at a basic level, what you must be going through right now. But....when you are stronger, maybe.... This place can help to put a smile on your face instead too. I hope so. One day.



All my Love. - Alicia Holmes
 
You need to do what's right for you and the girls to help get yourselves through this difficult time. We ain't gonna hold it against you not coming around, if coming here brings you pain.

Glad we could help. Take care of yourself. :thumbsup:
Rick
 
By all means don't come on if it's going to be hurtful and cause things to be worse for you. We'd rather you be off here and doing somewhat better then on here hurting and aching more.

We all love you and will do anything to help. Do your best to keep your chin up. You and the girls are still in my daily prayers and heart. Hugs to you all.
 
I am just glad we could help u maggie! I know its painful and hurts... I am sorry I wish we could do more.. I know that you and the kids have a special place in our family now and always will be! Maggie you are a strong woman!
 
Maggie, just letting you know that we're still thinking about you, Angelina, Annie and Chuck. When you're ready, please come back once in a while to say Hi :). Just know that we're here for you if/when you need us.
 
I third that Maggie - and if it's too painful to revisit this particular thread, just start a new one in the "General BS" forum - anything with "Critical Bill" in the title will surely get our attention.

All the best to all four of you, and hoping you are finding your way through....
 
ALWAYS here for you and the kids. Lots of love, hugs and prayers for you Maggie, Angelina, and Annie. Remember just a call away. Email me if I can do anything for all of you.
 
sweet pic Dave, very Chuck-esque!

Is that a large mouth?
I used to catch some awesome large mouth and stripers down in SoCal.
 
I never got a chance to chat with Chuck on Fauna, since i just joined a few days ago, but just by reading this thread, i can tell he will be greatly missed by all. I had tears in my eyes reading his wife's updates, and when his two daughters got on to talk about their daddy:(
To his wife Maggie and his beautiful children,my deepest sympathies condolences on the loss of your wonderful husband and father.
 
Hello all. Dave, great picture!! Just wanted to come and say hello and say I hope you are all doing well. We all wish the best for all of you and your families. Have a wonderful weekend.
