Random Memorial for Monday 11/19/18

Gone but not forgotten:  Shawn and Caroline Brady.

Or, to be more accurate, Frank Parker and Peggy McCay -- who both passed away in the final months of 2018, one right after the other.

Those how know me best know that I've been a fan of the DOOL since college (although it's also true that I stopped watching on April 10 of 2012 [yes, I recorded the date] and that I keep on putting off returning to Salem but expect to do so one of these Days before they get cancelled).  As such, I can still feel a little something something when the OG Brady couple leave the real world (and not just the soap world) for that great big fish market in the sky (you know if you know).

Those old folks who knew full well that a little fish chowder (and a whole lotta love) could solve just about any problem (from dissociative identity disorder [hey Kimberly!] to reappearing daughter-in-law back from the dead [hey Hope!], and even though I know, that when it comes to death, I have to understand that, "like sands through the hourglass, these ARE the days of our lives", you (both) will be missed.
