Returning to the Ranks

[Steve Ashton]

Ern,

You have been my strength over the past three years. Your council has been wise and just. Although we have never met in person you are, and will continue to be, a true friend.

For those who do not know, Ern and I have had some late night Skype calls. Usually when I need to bounce an idea off of someone and he is the only one with a green light on.

I will miss you as a strong voice of moderation when things have gotten heated and at those times when I tend to fly off the handle.

Good luck, thank you, and enjoy the forum fellow X Marks member.
