Having been through something of a dark relationship myself and how things end is never nice...I'll simply state that there are no "winners" at the end of that dark tunnel; only survivors.
My kudos to Jan, Tamara, and Fritz for their positions on this unhappy subject. Also my deepest condolences at the loss by family members, both past and present.

I don’t have a lot of life rules, but not hitting dudes in wheelchairs would be one of them...

Russ, in HS when my wrist was still in a cast a guy thought it would be a pretty good time to pick a fight with me.
It went right to the ground where I nearly cracked his skull with the cast.
He left me alone even after the cast was removed.

Thank you guys for your kind comments... I might take you up on that offer, Robert L! My dad and I always wanted to go to Australia but never made it.

I knew Jeff a bit in the late 1970's in Boulder, and liked him though I know his relationships had difficulties, shall we say. My girlfriend, and later wife... Kitty Bradley... though we divorced in 1998, worked for LAS way back when, so I had some social connection with the Lowes. And come to think of it, I wrote catalog copy for LAS for a couple of years, though I had a "real" software job too. I remember Janie, and the pain that followed Jeff's taking up with Catherine Destivelle. Though I was not close with Jeff, I always found him to be very friendly, and mourn his passing.

To borrow a line from Joseph Story:
"the mountains are a jealous mistress, and require a long and constant courtship. It is not to be won by trifling favours, but by a lavish homage."
