Had just posted to the FML about food and then read today's issue to find Carol's friend, Pam Deshong, had passed. Over the past half year or so, Carol and I have begun very close communications. Carol herself spent much time with Pam and also caring for her ferts as needed inspite of Carol having about 100 rescue ferts herself. (Yes Carol, thank you for Bud, he has stolen my heart and also my sock....). I have never heard a bad word about Pam, only good things especially where the ferts are concerned. We here in Richmond share the loss of a good person, a ferret keeper of the finest kind. May she rest in piece. Gordon, Byte-me, Nibble-ed, Kodo and Bud. [Posted in FML issue 3349]
