First, Kerry, my condolences on your loss.
Second, I'm happily surprised that you apologized publicly and in a private email to me. It shows that your rep for being a class act is well-deserved, and reflects more of who you are than the unannounced no-show, which was a big puzzle to me and everyone else here.
I wholeheartedly accept your apology and offer. Let's continue our talk via email.
And thanks to everyone here who offered support and balanced views on all sides. My apologies for hijacking this thread with my previous incident.
Hopefully, I'll have good things to add here about Kerry but that may take a few weeks or so, given my schedule.
And, as latbear4blk suggested, it may involve some roleplay to soothe ruffled feathers
