Hi everyone. I just thought I'd let you know I'm going to print out this thread and show it to my dad. It's been three weeks and I think it will bring him some comfort to know my mom was so appreciated here.

In an interesting bit of irony, my dad was left with a credit after they were unable to go on their last cruise in December. So he'll be taking along myself and my daughter, who's 8, on our first Mariner cruise in April. I wish I could have joined my mom on her favorite ship, but I know she'll be there in spirit.

Dave
