This is a photo of my fun-loving nephew, Brent, who drowned along with his girlfriend in a freak car accident June 1st. You can see the joy and fun he had for life in this pic. I LOVE this photo of him! He was the first born to any of my siblings; I had just turned 10 on August 24th, and he was born on October 2nd - more like a 'little' brother to me. Brent was 'dreading' getting closer and closer to 50... he was a few months shy of his 49th birthday when he died. Forever young...rest in peace.
On a brighter note, this IS my last year of teaching. We have moved our collective retirement year up to 2014 --- YEAH! TM and I are keeping our house for now and wintering in the south. Who knows where we'll meet up with some of you!
Any of you traveling south for the winter that come close to Hannibal, MO are welcome to 'driveway dock' with us. Just send me an email and we'll work out the logistics!
Until then remember life is precious and... Scatter Kindness!

So sorry to hear about your nephew and his girlfriend, scary but hope true how life can be short.Hope to meet up with you soon. Sam & Donna...
