I've long carried on the tradition of wishing a Happy Birthday to loyal and long time supporters of the Island. The recent episode of my finding out that a dear friend (George, W2AMR) had passed after I posted a HBD message seriously rattled my cage.

I will be doing fewer of these greetings going forward, but I encourage anyone who feels compelled to note a friend's birthday to certainly do so.

If I don't announce anyone's birthday, please don't take it personally. :ashamed:

73,
Luke

I kind of figured as much so if you don't do it by morning, I'll try to hit it in the afternoon.

Going to see more of these as time marches on, Luke. Hopefully new blood will find its way here and we'll continue the tradition.

You ain’t nailed me yet. :-D

Luke... it happens. Not your fault. Don’t let an unforeseen circumstance like that change what you’ve been doing. Keep doing good.

Yes, agreed. But I understand the sentiment Luke. We just have to keep on keeping on imo.

Not your fault Luke, you do your best to think about birthdays, i would not mind if that happened after i passed away before anyone knew it.
At least i won't be back to complain about it ;)
