I am still alive!

[Dewey Torres]

Hi all,
I just wanted to come on and explain a bit about why I have not been posting. Life has dealt me a bad hand right now and I have serious issues to tend to with my family, mainly my wife. She is not well and I have had to let woodworking take a back seat but as a great supporter here on the Creek I thought I owed it to my friends to let you all know where I have been. When I have a chance I will be on from time to time but please don't take my absence as "I gave up on you all". I have made many great friends here and I am here for good. Thanks for the out-poring of PM's I have received from (you know who you are). I truly felt cared for by a bunch of folks who have never met me.
As for the Collaboration box... when it gets here I will complete it so don't worry about that. To the turners... the bomb is dormant right now but calls for me to turn it on again.
Take care all!
Dewey

Dewey,

I was recently thinking to myself....."I haven't seen Dewey on here for a while." Though we've never chatted, I've saved many of your posts to files for future reference. You're a good teacher even when you don't know that people are learning from you.

God Bless your wife, you and your family.

[Bruce Page]

Dewey, prayers to you and your wife.

[Jim Rimmer]

Dewey:

We'll hold you and your dear wife up in our prayers.
Fair winds and following seas.

[David Drickhamer]

Dewey,
Sorry to hear your wife isn't well. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
