Looks like a 60" round.
My first guess was that it looked like Palecek Furniture and I was right that the chairs are from that brand! The table might be an older style from them, so I would call the company and ask.

In the light of such massive mainly human developed global warming in recent years ...
... wouldn't that be mainly hot air?

@salonva, I used to give "How to fold a fitted sheet" demonstrations at work when we got new staff who didn't know :-D DH still won't learn, he leaves them for me to do :-D :-D
I was taught by my employer's mother back when I was 16.
Carol, yes, I remember!
Anyone remember this?
I'm sorry I don't have a specific organization suggestion. I know there are suicide prevention hotlines and maybe there would be one local that would accept donations? I'm sorry that you and your friends are going through this.
I too think Annie’s suggestion is a good one. If you want to look more deeply, there are also some highly rated charities that support young people, and those that support the surviving family members of those who committed suicide. I cannot imagine the pain of a parent or sibling when this happens. You can check Charity Navigator to see what percentage goes directly to those they serve.
I am so sorry to all who have lost someone to suicide. I agree with Annie’s suggestion. My best friend’s brother died by suicide, and she and her family were helped tremendously by connecting with other survivors through AFSP.

Funny animals, they are so patient with our silliness.
Lisa, I agree. My daughters were raised with. a Golden Retriever! We always dressed her for Halloween, usually in their past costumes. She was such a good sport.
But one day, I really looked at her and realized she didn't like it at all.
Last Halloween for Casey. She passed during DD2’s freshman year at Pitt.
She was perfect. Kindergarten to college, this one dog. I often joked that my daughters were to not just raised with her but by her! All the best qualities come from her.😀

Rolled out of bed and donned this high fashion ensemble to go to massage and PT. Looking at ceiling bc I haven’t mastered the art of the mirror selfie. Spanx air essentials pants, rando sweatshirt.
Oh...and....I paid $15 a fixture, NIB, before tax and shipping.
I like THIS one too @ $150ea...
Use some painters tape and rub n buff and add that gold band yourself.
On a PC, I just entered "Simple Ceiling Medallions". I do know that you get different hits with a PC over a phone. Many of the pictures on the first page were nice plus they gave you sites to shop from.
Here is a link for one I liked Medaillion
Since you have a flat ceiling, I would be tempted to just make the repair unless their is some reason why an electrician would tell you otherwise.

I don't know what came over me. I was thinking about what we had read in high school almost 70 years ago and suddenly I felt I needed to read Alfred, Lord Tennyson's, The Idylls of the King. The entire thing. So here I am, reading for about an hour each morning Victorian epic poetry. It's a very, very long poetic epic.
I have always liked Tennyson's Crossing The Bar, but still......
@salonva we considered Betty for our book group this year but passed because we already read memoirs and nonfiction that are challenging themes and use our fiction choices as a kind of palate cleanser. From your post, I'd say we made the right choice.
Salonva- As I was reading your description I realized that I had read Betty and I'm fairly sure that someone here must have mentioned it. It was strange and disturbing and I'm not sure how I felt about the novel. It's difficult to imagine the cruelty and racism portrayed and the horrific events that occur. At times it was disjointed and a little hard to follow. I remember looking up the time period and was surprised that Betty's storyline was set in the 60's since it seemed a much earlier time. The novel is set in Appalachia which helps explain what seemed like an anachronistic time to me. The relationship between the father and daughter was touching and the tales that he told her about her Cherokee heritage were wonderfully poetic.
It reminded me of Glass Castles too, and The Color Purple.
