Finding out two years after the fact is even worse. So sorry to hear of Doug's passing. I enjoyed working, laughing and talking hockey with him. RIP, friend.

It's one of my all-time favorites. I'm also a retired art teacher and have done a pen and ink montage-type drawing of my all-time favorite film, "Casablanca." I would love to mail a print to you. May I have a mailing address? A faithful fan of TCM... Richard Hodes Dear Mr. Osborne:

It was Judie Barkan's Birthday (Jon's Mom & my older Sister). On the way to the Atlanta Airport we stopped by to visit Jon. It was amazing how many of his friends left little treasures on his stone & grave. Hockey pucks, Golf Balls, Baseballs for the Cubs, he loved that stadium and the traditional rocks or stones. I left my traditional Starburst all flavors. Why you may ask? It was our last conversation at his home on Friday November 2007 Sabbath. Jon to my left the girls at a little table near us. We came to meet Benjamin who was one month old. Jon bent over to tell me @ Halloween Elizabeth offered him a Starburst as a joke. He reminded me of the following story: When Jon was about 6 or 7 I took him to the movies and he wanted Starburst. I bought him his very own. Typical Jon he ate them all and everything else we bought to eat & drink. Jon went home and remembers throwing up rainbow color from the Starbursts he ate. He never could eat another Starburst. I remember saying come on Jon all the times we went to the Knicks Games, went out to dinner this is what you remember of the time we spent together. When my sister Michelle called to tell me that we lossed Jon. All I could think of was our last dinner together. All of the family around the Shabbat table and Jon telling me this story. December 7th is around the corner. We can't believe he will be gone 2 years. Sunday we were with Abby, Miriam & Benjamin at Judie's Birthday. Have they grown and what beautiful children he left behind. All I kept thinking of what would Jon have said to his Mom. Miss you my G_d Son... We just returned from Atlanta on November 15, 2009.

I read through it every morning (with the sound off) while I drink a cup of coffee. You did a good job as product manager. It's a superb concept. On the negative side, it's been impossible so far to find anyone who will take ownership of the service. I've written to Dish, CNN and Echo Star to report two articles (Mars Science Lab & Endeavour) on the Tech/Science option that have resided there since December 2008 and it seems that nobody is steering the ship. Do you have an address for a POC who is responsible for maintaining CNN Enhanced? W. Rowe Paxton/Laurel Hill, FL Per your request for feedback regarding CNN Enhanced: It’s great.

My grandfather, John F. Trotz, came to USA in 1890's and, after briefly settling in Detroit, where his older brother Michael lived, came to Scranton, Pa. for a wedding, met my grandmother, and stayed. Like hundreds of others from his former hometown in Poland, Suwalki, he became a coal miner. He was killed in the mines when he was 40, leaving my grandmother with six kids at the height of the Depression in 1929. My father, Edward Trotz, was 3 at the time. I ran Trotz through the Twitter search engine and found your name. You are following me, too. I am 54 and live in Baltimore, where my father moved looking for work after being discharged from the Army Air Corps after the war. My Dad will be 83 on Nov. 26. He named me after his father, and my son is named after my father. I also have two daughters....Sincerely, John Trotz great last name, i’d say. what do you know about your family history.
