Great message! sad it has to be but it's the way it is and I'm glad you wrote about it...touched on the subject in the nicest of ways!

Mendy I find the format very creative...in answer to your email ...there aren't that many hard fast rules to this....I find it to be a good delivery...any advice you get is going to be the opinion of that person, if you like the advice then act on it...if not then the work is yours...take care and have a nice day!!!
