In less than 48 hours three of our loved ones will be on my High School grounds for Funerals and Celebration of Lives. A week prior to this we lost Uncle Dick and just a few days ago another Dugger family lost a daughter. Plus a current Dugger student lost his life days after Uncle…

My Thoughts This Very Sad Sunday
This past week had been a good week. Monday and Tuesday we said our earthly goodbye to my Great-Great Uncle Dick who had already been reunited with loved ones and who finally got to meet Christ. It was sad only because we are left behind, he no longer deals with pain or tears. We even…

Misjudging… Depths
Do you ever get into conversations you wish you hadn’t started? Especially when you are driving? No I don’t mean anything to do with iPhones!
