Thank you to all our Veterans. Eleven years ago, my grandfather and hero Sidney Stein was highlighted in the Veteran’s Day edition of the Worcester Telegram. https://www.telegram.com/picture-gallery/news/2014/11/08/slideshow-wwii-veteran-sidney-r/979386007/ & https://www.telegram.com/story/news/local/east-valley/2014/11/09/wwii-veteran-recalls-b-17/35974613007/?gnt-cfr=1&gca-cat=p&gca-uir=true&gca-epti=z113635d00----v113635b0041xxd004165&gca-ft=214&gca-ds=sophi If you have seen the Apple series “Masters of the Air” or the movie “Memphis Belle”, that was my grandfather, flying 30 missions over Europe in WWII as part of the Mighty 8th Army Air Corps, including two crash landings. Thanks again to Brad Petrishen for writing such a great piece. If you wish to make an end of year tax deductible donation, I humbly ask that you consider contributing to the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force, so the memories of these great heroes can be preserved forever. And visit in Savannah whenever you are there!

Hospice Nurse Rebecca Brewer authored a wonderfully comprehensive book on end-of-life issues for patients and families. I highly recommend it for practitioners, but especially for their families.

My Amazon review: The Last Season is an incredibly comprehensive and caring book for anyone experiencing death or the grieving process when a loved one is dying. The fear of the unknown is natural when facing the death of someone, especially someone close, because it doesn't necessarily happen often. Preparing yourself both emotionally and logistically with a guide like this to follow, may make the process substantially easier. Kudos to Rebecca for putting her experience as a hospice nurse in such a helpful, easy to read book.
