Gay, I always enjoyed waking up to both you and Gayle as I was growing up. Central Illinois has lost two fantastic journalists over the past two years. Us "youngins" could learn a lot from the seasoned journalists in this group.

Congrats on your new position. Carle is very lucky to have a woman like you.

Thanks so much for all the kind words! I'm choked up and speechless and you all know how rarely that happens! But it's been working with people like all of you that has made the long, strange hours and working holidays and other issues so much easier to bear. I will continue to be active in INBA and especially with the Foundation because INBA is an organization I firmly believe in and I can personally attest to the benefits of being a member. Thanks so much for everything!
