Josie...good news! I just heard from Sue regarding Damon's status...he's not dead after all!

She wrote...

"Just got an e-mail back from Carol overseas. She says that Damon is NOT dead - he's alive and well and in love in New Orleans! Bev emailed her with the same question a few weeks ago and Carol contacted a
mutual friend of Damon's down in New Orleans, so that bit of gossip is false."

New Orleans. How perfect for him. I'm sure he's having a blast!
