Dave:

Unfortunately, I am 3,000 miles too far away and many more thousands of
dollars short to make an offer on your beautiful gear, so I can only offer
my sincere condolences for the circumstances that have brought about this
most unfortunate situation.  I am most sympathetic, having gone through a
similar tragedy not once, but twice, 30 years ago and more.

73,

Keith
