Bad news this morning

Whether the need is great or small, there is power in prayer, especially when God's people raise their voices together.

Bad news this morning

Post by OldSchool »

Thanks for our newly acquired friends (and those with whom we have yet to become acquainted). :tiphat:

My SIL called this morning to let us know my Mom passed. Not much we're able to say right now except we'll miss her a lot.

All guns have at least two safeties. One's digital, one's cognitive. In other words - keep the digit off the trigger until ready to fire, and THINK. Some guns also have mechanical safeties on top of those. But if the first two don't work, the mechanical ones aren't guaranteed. - me

She was a very special lady who led a full life, but it was still way too soon for us (her obituary is online, if anyone is interested -- it tells a lot about me, so I hesitate to make it widely available). Our kids are as broken up as we are (when tough men cry...).

Thank you all. Y'all are also special people, we've discovered! :tiphat:
