Welcome to the World, Master Jacob!
How about some good news, folks? Duane Lester’s son Jacob Michael was born at 7:05 PM Monday night. He and Mom are doing AOK and, from the tweet Duane sent me to let me know, Dad’s doing pretty darned well, too. This is Duane’s fifth and, as the oldest child of a large family, let [...]
