The easiest way is to click the quote button under each person’s post. It’ll populate both of f them into your post. 

Thanks. I'll try that. Sometimes I find it difficult if one person's comment is on page 2 and I
am replying to someone on page 6.  When I initiate the reply to page 6 and go back to the
person on page 2 for example and click on that one's quote button, it seems to loose my
initial reply to the person on page 6. 

I might be doing something wrong.

I've struggled with that myself.  I'm not sure if there is any way to get it not to do that.  Hopefully someone else will know.

If you press the plus sign by the word quote, it will keep at least one post saved for you.

You can add multiple posts.  So plus sign page 6 quote and before you reply, head back and plus sign the earlier one too and then when you are ready, hit the box and all the quotes will be included….but it looks like in a new post, as I just hit the box with this reply open.  I thought it would be added to this one.  Instead it opened a new one for them.

Wow, had no clue, thanks Stargazer! Or maybe some might not want everyone to know this helpful youtube when they have to get responses that cut up their original posts, lol. 

And it looks like it will put first saved first, second saved second, etc.

Great.  That works.  Including @bluebell too.
