Recently I volunteered to take the Q at the Pub. I had a great plan to run do my best and see where I landed. Life sometimes gives you the ole finger and you gotta make changes.
I missed a call last night from a friend of mine, he and his wife are very close to my family. Jason is my best friend, since 4th grade we have been causing trouble and even fixed a thing a two together. His wife introduced me to my wife yall know how that goes. I called him back on my way to the Pub, he told me at that time that his Wife’s Mom had passed away Earl his father in law found her in the bed asleep for the last time. Diane was a great women, I let the pax know what direction to go in and set my watch to walk mode picked the phone back up and called Jason. I spoke with Cody spoke about some good times I remembered about Diane in hopes that she would smile for a moment thinking about her Mom. Diane was a tuff son of a Gun from Surry County she didnt take much crap and was a little lady who loved having a house full of people.

Homemade Stouffers!
When I met Diane I was in college at UNCC I didnt have any family that year to visit for Thanksgiving and Diane caught wind of this and refused to let me be alone that year. Codys town had a tradition of meeting up the night before and having a good time before thanksgiving day with family. Before we left out Diane had “prepared ” a wonderful Italian dinner that she “worked” very hard on. Being in college I was just happy to have a hot meal in front of me. I looked up after my first bite All smiles I asked Diane “how did you have time to make this wonderful Lasagna before thanks giving”? She smiled real big and said this is my Homemade Stouffers Ive been working on it all day! By that point I didnt care who Stouffers was, I just thought this Lady was one heck of a Lasagna cook. That is until I seen the Box in the trash. She was a great Woman and I hope God Makes more like her.

During my call I walked a couple of miles and the pax ran down and back.
