Thank you Ellen! It's been a fun 19 years. I think you need to do a segment called what I will miss the most about your show. I'll start. I love your guests, staff and the way you talk with people but what I probably will miss the most is that you keep me "up to date". I would never know about newer musicians, or some of the great shows I now watch, or tik tok or the many things I hear about, and then learn about, because I watch you. You help keep me young, at least mentally, and I am grateful. You have helped laugh when I broke my back, and recovered from an Achilles tear; you kept me calm during a pandemic; you have done so much for people who others see as different and I so enjoy meeting them through you. And I love the way you love your wife. It makes me feel better seeing you grow in that relationship. It is hopeful and I guess that is truly what I will miss the most. You give hope to all of us who are just trying to get through the day. So thanks! Enjoy the next phase of your life and know there are many of us who will always be grateful that we got to share your life with you for these past 19 years. Take care.
