What do you all think about lighting a candle this evening in memory of Lesley? I thought about this yesterday but was reminded today when I saw Marcia's photo. We did this once before since I've been a member and I believe we lit up the sky from the west coast to the east coast. May she rest in peace.

UPDATE: To make this easier for everyone, how about everyone lights their candle at 8:00 PM their time. We will begin the lighting on the east coast and continue across the country.

    what a wonderful idea!
    shall we set a specific time so we are all lighting at the same time?

    Yes
    I exercise tonight and would love the time to be 8:00 P.M. That way I am guaranteed that I am home and lighting up on the east coast. How does that sound?

    Wonderful idea
    I will try and get my family to do the same 8:00 EST? My wife passed at 9:00 PST. Whatever time you all select I will try and participate.

    THANK YOU ALL. WE LOVE YOU ALL.

    I will bring a candle
    to work with me, as I'll still be in the office at 5:00 PDT, so that I can join in this commemoration and celebration of Lesley's life and the good fight she fought.

    Thanks for thinking of this MTN,
