In memory of Judy Hesse #2605.
It is still difficult to accept that Judy is gone. She was such a
positive influence in my life and a treasured friend. The times we had
together were priceless leaving many wonderful memories. Judy was
always there to help a friend and always brought laughter and comedy
to every occasion. She had a big heart, not only for her fellow man,
but also for the entire canine world. It is hard to imagine living
life without Judy, without her zest for life, her love of humor and
her friendship. She will be sorely missed.

Judy McDonough #2921 passed away on the dance floor in the Texas
Valley dancing the polka at the beginning of March. A month before she
stopped for a week at Rockport, TX on the way down to the valley for a
wonderful visit with John & me, and all our Western jam
session friends. A memorial service was held in the Valley
and her funeral was in Wisconsin where she was from. Happy
Trails, Judy! We all sure miss bubbly happy you!!! Luv & Hugs.

Hi All, Many of us have visited Billy and Cindy Wheeler’s home
in Nashville - along the beautiful Cumberland River. You guessed it,
the house and cars are underwater. They got out,
just in time....by boat, with the clothes on their backs. Two days
ago, they visited their home, by boat - and all was still underwater.
Their insurance is far from enough to rebuild. If
you have any thoughts of helping to cleanup or help in other ways,
their address is 50501 Chapmansboro Rd, Ashland City, TN 37015 Cell
phone: 615-207-3546. If you send anything,
please identify yourself as a WIN. Thanks to
all, Christy 352-603-0024. (They are friends of the WINs. Freddie
Boutwell #61 hosted a WIN Gathering at their home a few years ago,
also they hosted the group for dinner in August ‘09 and would accept
no payment.)
