I did not know her but have always appreciated your help, kindness, and guidance on this board, Malcolm

Very sorry to hear my friend, I cant even begin to imagine what you are going through, and if we cross paths in June in BVI would certainly be honored to toast her...

Thanks for letting us know Mal.

I did not know Candace, but I feel like she was a member of our TTOL family, and I am shocked and saddened.

Very sad news, Mal. Nancy and I were at the Elm a couple of nights ago and of course thinking of the two of you. We have lots of great memories with you and "Candaysay". Wishing the best for you, and hope you get back down here soon.

I know my missus has already passed on our condolences but just wanted to add my own. We had so many happy times together at CRC and The Elm but, sadly, could never get Candace aboard Jeannius (even just tied at the dock!!!). Can't believe we will never see her again. Here's a photo of happy times together along with a few other TTOLers, at The Elm, on the night the great Steve Cropper joined the band...

I feel so badly for you Malcolm. I hadn't expected to hear this as I thought you might be comimg down soon. I enjoyed our many chance meetups and the talks with yourself and Candace at the restaurants and bars on the North shore. Please look after yourself well and I hope to see you perhaps later in the year.

So incredibly sorry for your loss. Can't think of a better way honor her memory than with a visit to the BVI in June. After losing 2 dogs and my mom and dad in the past 2 years and hearing about way too many people gone too soon, I encourage everyone to LIVE life to the fullest. You never know what day will be your last.

Mal,
I know you were so very much looking forward to returning to your BVI home. So sorry your partner can’t make it.
Fondly remember meeting you at the Elm years ago. We walked in and saw you, and I said to my friends “I know that guy!” Even though I didn’t.

QTR my friends...Quality Time Remaining. Make the most of it!

Malcolm,

Roy and I always looked forward to seeing you and Candace. Some of our happiest memories of the BVI were when we stayed
at the Chateau. Candace made a lovely Italian dinner. I could smell the sauce cooking for hours.

I'm certain that Roy welcomed her into Heaven today and made her a painkiller.

May all of your good memories bring smiles to you.

Karen
