Raise a Beer or Twenty




Rob Ford, former mayor of Toronto, died Tuesday, March 22, 2016 after fighting cancer.  This colorful character didn't let his responsibilities as an elected public official stop him from enjoying life to the fullest.  He was often found drunk, high or swearing but he never lost his shine in the eyes of the public.  Rob Ford, dead at 46.

When I'm Gone

Joey Feek, country music singer and half of the husband/wife duo Joey+Rory, died Friday, March 4, 2016 after battling cervical cancer.  After her cancer returned, the grace with which she prepared her family for her death was amazing.  In her hauntingly beautiful song "When I'm Gone" Joey left husband Rory and young daughter, Indiana, all they need to know to carry on without her.
Just give it time we'll both be fine.  Joey Feek, dead at 40.
