August 2022 - I’m adding albums and pictures of my rescue farm and animals among other things. Please keep comments family friendly.

January 7, 2013 - My lovely wife Rhonda lost her battle with cancer on this date. The end was relatively quick and she did not suffer long. In the end, she was able to see my oldest son get married, she was there for the birth of her granddaughter and she fulfilled her wish of taking our granddaughter to Disney World for Christmas this year. We returned home on December 23rd and she was a exhausted and I had to place her directly into the hospital. By the 27th they had released her to hospice care and by the 7th of January she had gone quietly ahead to her place in Heaven.

She held out almost until my birthday on January 8. Instead on my birthday I was making arrangements for her cremation.

If you love someone, give them a hug and tell them you love them everyday for you never know when the end will come.

Cancer is not just a cruel disease, it is one of the most horrible ways to die since the doctors tell you when there is no more hope. Imagine facing you own death and there is nothing you can do about it!.

For now, I have removed my private pictures from view and what you see is what you get. If this bothers you, send me a message and I will remove myself from your group or friend list. Just be nice enough not to block me.

As far as people who send me F&F requests, with rare exception, I do not block - I'll e-mail you if I don't like something or ignore you. Just common courtesy - not being an A__hole like some who are so quick to block and not tell you why!
