Since getting my motorcycle in July, I've been feeling the need to get some saddle bags for it. It's frustrating to get to the grocery store or to try to take a kid somewhere on it without a place to store a few items while in transit. I found these saddle bags online and ordered them, and they arrived this week. Despite being very busy, I found a little time to throw them on.
This week our friend, Bill Shriver died. He had a very bad heart attack back in January, but was too tough for it to take him all at once. The damage however was severe and permanent. He's been in and out of the hospital since January. In July, he and his wife, Opal, attended the Palmyra Pageant. About a week later, he was hospitalized with congestive heart failure and a degenerative bone marrow disease. With his bone marrow unable to produce white blood cells or platelets any longer, his health failed him and he passed away on Tuesday, September 15th. I was honored to conduct his funeral three days later at the church.After the funeral, there were several potted flowers left. Opal took the ones she wanted, but gave this purple flower to Joanne. She has it planted in our yard now. We will miss Bill.
