My father, January 31st, 1937, January 15th, 2023.

While suffering from a number of conditions, a slip in the shower killed him.

Not a easy life that of him, but he was loved by all his neighbours.

Prayers will be welcomed.

Prayers delivered for you and your family.

My the LORD bless you and keep you;

May the LORD make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you;

May the LORD lift up His countenance upon you and + give you peace.

Amen.

That is a thing of beauty, Steven - very moving, very proper, and very Christian.

I pray for you and your family to receive the same grace.

You were in NYC during the 90s?

 

That must have been awesome.

It was actually great (I was there from 96-2011 give or take a couple years in between). Late ‘90s was when the crime had declined to a tolerable level but rents weren’t psychotic yet. 9/11 wasn’t so great though!

She could act, too.

She stayed fine for a long time.

Raquel Welch as Mary Ann on Gilligan's Island? I think that would have wrecked her career.

Raquel on Lois & Clark;

My favorite, though, is Hannie Caulder.

I remember, earlier in the week, a report that Sizemore suffered something like a stroke, and doctors were saying that the family needed to prepare for 'end of life' measures.

Drug abuse history or not, I'm still a bit 😞

[17thfabn]

It is rough. People who have drug problems often have long term health problems even after they are off drugs.

Even when they quit drugs the damage is often done to the major organs that will come back to haunt them.
