Can accomplish much drying of things that can't be tossed in dryer.......use a combo of an Ikea drying rack in old-fashioned tub, plus shirts on hangers that go onto the shower rod, small items jus...

Very kind of you to share you brother's story, one that shows how what might seem to be just "things" can hold such meaning for us depending on who they are connected to. One of my older brothers d...
