I was sitting at the brunch table today talking about soap operas. I have watched them since I was a little girl. I used to watch them with my Ma, my mom’s mom. Anyway, I was talking about them and my dad said I sounded just like her, my Ma.
Ma loved to talk to the [...]

A year ago today I lost my best friend in the whole wide world. He wasn’t human but an animal. A dog to be more precise. His name was Chester and he was 13 yrs. old. He got sick suddenly and died the same day. A blessing.
Chester was a cheese eater, whip cream loving, and [...]

When I first had a class with this special person, Father John Oetgen, I was terrified and intimidated. A few weeks later maybe even a few days later my opinion totally changed about this man. He was considerate [...]
