Our loss...Heaven's gain

I apologize for being off the air when I was at home and could blog. I had more bad news Wednesday afternoon when my cousin called and said that we had lost another first cousin. Now, this one was a surprise. Blythe was at a city council meeting speaking against a re-zoning plan when he experienced an aneurizm of the aorta. He was air-vacced to Duke, operated on three times, but they were unable to save him. So my family and I spent much of yesterday in their hometown with them. Blythe was a good, Christian man who loved people. He was an excellent neighbor, and, since his retirement, had made a point to take care of all the widows in his neighborhood. I know his wife, family, and friends will miss him very much and will I.
