In Memoriam Lucy B. Garcia Two Years Ago
The moment you left us our hearts split in two. One side filled with memories, the other side died with you. We often lay awake at night when the world is fast asleep, and take a walk down memory lane with tears upon our cheeks. Remembering you is easy, we do it everyday; but missing you is a heartache that never goes away. We hold you tightly within our hearts and there you will remain. You see life has gone on without you but is will never be the same.

Meatless Meals
The Lenten season is now well underway. For many, it is a time of fasting and giving up indulgences, particularly rich food and drink and a time for sober contemplation of the direction that life is taking. Lent can be a time for healthy observation — a season to reassess the meaning of one’s life and focus on areas that might need some special reflection and perhaps change. A little self-contemplation is always a good endeavor for anyone.

NEIGHBORHOOD GETS FROSTIER AMID POLITICAL DIFFERENCES
DEAR ABBY: My wife and I share a common driveway with our neighbors. These neighbors are keenly aware that my wife and I do not share their political views. After the election, one of them quit speaking to us or even acknowledging our presence.
