Great Job, (again), Blake.

And a salute to your Grandfather.
For all that he did in service of our country, the friendship to his peers, and for his love of his wife, Mary.
Individuals could learn a lot about life from his example.

<salute>!

Very good as always Blake, although I would like to see more articles on Richmond social scene.

Nicely done sir, nicely done indeed!
