So many of you have been wondering why this week’s column isn’t up. My mother passed away yesterday afternoon. We knew this was coming over a week ago because she had slipped into a coma. We were told by the Hospice nurse she would be gone about a week after the food and water stopped, but she was a fighter and lasted 12 days. Even though we knew this was coming it hit me hard yesterday, but today I’m coping a little bit better. I am hoping to have my columns back up and running in about a week. I want to thank all of you that have kept my mom in your thoughts and prayers, that has meant to much to me. With that I will end this and thank you all for putting up with all my family’s health problems throughout the years.
