She lost her Grandmother last night to a long illness.

God blessed her Granny with nearly 90 years on this Earth, most of it a
hard life in the Appalaichian coal country of McDowell County, West Virginia.

She raised 6 kids on a coal miner's pay there, and they all wound up
doing okay. She loved me like one of her own when I married her
Granddaughter. I'll never forget her.

Cygette was blessed to have a Grandmother with her for 48 years.

Talk to you all when I get back from WV next week.

Be safe, and tell your family you love them today.

You may not get the chance if you wait.

Hugs to Sigette and you too Siggy.

We found out around 3:30 this afternoon, my Uncle Herman passed around 10:30 ish this morning. I was never real close with him, but it still blows.

*Wonders what HE needs with ANOTHER of my family!!!!!* (Around 20 of them since 1985)

Anyone wonder why I have faith issues?!?!?!?!?!?!

Do you want an answer to that question? Or was it rhetorical?

No not really thanks though. I do wonder, but the answers I get are the ones that sound like a cosmic joke and just seem to make me angry and I don't like angry.

Zed, Elf.............thanks.

Hugs and prayers to all.

Zed, hope things improve with your dad and your luck.

Thanks to all.

It was a dignified service.

Her Granny's church was full, high-octane gospel, and the preacher
officiating was throwing fire and brimstone at all us sinners.

THAT's preachin'!

Sorry about your Uncle, HB.

My condolences to you and your family.

Hope all's getting better with the Zed clan.

Rock on, Zed.
