Sorry not been around much

IKnowWood · February 05, 2008, 08:35:33 AM

All, sorry I have not been around much posting and interacting with you all.

My father-in-law recently passed away fighting Lung Cancer, he was diagnosed this last July 2007 and passed away January 30th, 2008. He is the person who hooked me on the Bradly Smoker and was part of all our lives. He was a constant lurker on the boards and loved the interaction we all had hear but never posted. Since his diagnosis cam in I took it easy here as reading the boards was one of his daily things since retiring several years ago, and his inability to use his smoker was tearing him apart.

With him gone we will re-build and move forward. His Widow, my mother-in-law has decided to keep the SS Original smoker (I am not sure she will keep the Propane one, maybe not since I still have mine), and I can teach her what she already does not know (not much to explain). She is also an avid fan of the forum and I hope one day she will also get an account and share her experiences. Lots to do before we get there, but we can only take each day and each week one at a time.

I will be back posting again more starting now, time to move on.
