— Hello everyone and Happy Holidays. Can you believe it? This is almost the end of the year. My goodness, where did time go? However, if you are reading my column, then you are blessed because you are above ground!

So many family members and friends have left us this year and gone on to a better place. The holidays can be very sad for some of us. I personally can understand that. I also know that we are still among the living and we must enjoy life to the fullest because tomorrow is not promised. So my friends, let’s enjoy!
