Their website is still up.
There are two splash screen notifications: first being Jim's passing; second being a message from Donna regarding grieving and reorganizing.
Time will tell how this is resolved.
I hope the best for her.

Hmmm. I've tried several browsers and they all say the server cannot be found. Maybe there's still hope though.

My iPhone went directly to their website.
I was there to verify after reading your post.
I'd be shocked if they just shut everything down—someone is going to be interested in Byrnes if Donna doesn't maintain it.
Have you tried calling them?

Their website still comes up for me too, with the pop-up messages about Jim and the one from Donna that says they are still in recovery. It would certainly be great if the business finds a way to continue. - Dave
Even your link doesn't open for me. I rebooted my phone and still nothing.
Wonder why it's not working for me.

Curious.
I just browsed the site using a DuckDuckGo browser which has never been there from here.

I tried my wife's tablet, which has also never logged in there and it says the same as my phone. She just tried duck duck go and it also didn't load it.

Whois says their domain is valid thru June 2025 via GoDaddy.
Maybe there's a storm with links down between MI and FL.

Maybe I'm hoping it's just me and they'll carry on with the business.

Ken, Do you have VPN? I find sometimes some sites won't load if my VPN is on.

The entire site is still there along with those 2 messages. So there is still hope. My thoughts are basically the blades. Anything else is so well made I do not see it breaking. If it does I think I can manage a fix. There are many of his tools out there for sure.
Well I just installed anew router a week ago, but is the only site I can't get to. Maybe it's something with that. I turned off WiFi and it connected via cellular. Obviously it's something with my router. But why only that site?

That's a question you should ask of your internet service provider - they ought to be able to run the necessary diagnostics to figure out where the link is broken.

Apparently Montana is a dead zone state. I can get to a gray screen when using the links shown above. The only thing that comes up is Jim's passing.

I was able to access the website via a link above from GaryMGg.

Perseverance! Works most of the time!
I hate glitches! I have three web browsers just for times like yours, Ken.
