I AM REPEATING THIS STORY IN CASE YOU MISSED IT….A FAMILY EASTER/SPRING MIRACLE…..I always associate this time of the year as a time of miracles, and this year it was especially so for us. Our son, Rob Frechette, a sales rep for a heating/cooling company in the Chicago area was on assignment on April 13, Holy Thursday. He had climbed up a ladder to check out something in a bldg. At about 35 feet up, a strong wind came and literally blew him off the ladder, and he landed on the black top below. He remembers that he was unconscious and woke up in the hospital. The Miracle is that he is alive to tell the tale. He got a concussion and several stitches in his head, but aside from that, there were no broken bones, missing teeth, gashes…..totally amazing! Somebody up there certainly was shining a light on him on Holy Thursday!!! He spent 3 days in the hospital and was released….a bit groggy and dizzy, but other than that…seemingly fine. He sounds good….and he is back at work…not back ‘in the field’ but assigned to temporary office duty for a bit. How does one explain what happened? People fall off a stair or two and break things… their legs, necks, spine etc…. Of course there is always the chance that the head injury can cause future problems, but right now, all seems fine. Amen and hallelujah! Join us in prayers of thanksgiving and in hope that nothing awful will occur due to the head trauma. You can send him a card or message to 506 A1 Smith Ave., Lake Bluff, IL 60044. You can e-mail him at frecher@ac-heat.net. You can text or call him at 847-721-7027. Be careful out there folks….count your blessings….and believe in miracles!
“MOORE” GOOD NEWS!!!!!!….After undergoing months and months of chemotherapy for Stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at Johns Hopkins, our dear friend, BRUCE MOORE, just called with the great good news that he is in full and total remission from cancer!!!!! I ask for ‘moore’ prayers of Thanksgiving and joy with this news! You can text or call him at 305-393-2276…..You can email him at brucemoorebroadway@gmail.com… Or you can send him cards and messages at 35 West Broadway…Gettysbury, PA 17325.
CONGRATS TO KARL STAHL!!!! Last night, Key West’s own, Karl Stahl, appeared as a contestant on THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE!!!! He not only appeared….he WON big time…. over $15,000 in cash and prizes including a fabulous trip to Spain of which he and his lovely wife, Stacy will be visiting in the near future! A big group of fans and friends of Karl were at Aqua Side Bar last eve to watch the show last night and cheer him on! What joy to share in Karl and Stacy’s good fortune. He nearly won an extra $34,000 but missed on the final spin! It is wonderful that we were all excited and joyful for this special Key West couple!!!!! We are one human family!!!!

Bocdow. …Dee Dee Duecker … Karla Muir … Vincent Gregory …Tony Freese… Jennifer O’Lear …Margaret Taylor … Roland Ryper …Patrick Richards. Remember, there are many reasons that we pray…not just because people are ill…. I do believe that when we all send prayers and good vibes to those in need, those prayers mystically meet and surround those being prayed for. Sometimes we pray for miracles and the impossible….sometimes we pray to just cope with the results of what happens to those we are praying for. Sometimes we pray for strength to go on and to accept…sometimes we pray for thanksgiving. We are in this thing called ‘Life’ together….and we all have power within us to help our fellow man. Bless you for remembering our loved ones….Prayer changes things! Let me know if you know of anyone who should be added to this list.
SAD NEWS….In this past week we have lost three special persons……Stella Winiarski, George Bernat, and Mickey Sajetowski. Please keep them and their loved ones in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you.

THE TAURUS PERSONALITY….APRIL 20 THROUGH MAY 20…..
People know they can trust a Taurus, for they are reliable, faithful, practical, and people to turn to in a crisis. They can be counted on! Although they are steadfast, they are also very resistant to the idea of change. It makes them feel nervous…as if everything is going to collapse around them! Taureans always take a long time to get used to any major alterations in their life, and they they can feel dislocated by change. As a result, they tend to slip into routines that quickly become ruts, as they would rather know what each day will bring, even though it is boring or tedious…than risk getting upset when their regular schedule is disturbed.
Taureans take things slow….preferring to do things in their own time and in their own way, and often turn a deaf ear to anyone who may try to persuade them otherwise. They have tremendous determination and will power but this can turn into that stubborn streak that Taureans are famous for. Nothing will change their mind; people can go blue in the face trying to reason with them, but they just won’t listen!
Taureans do need their sense of self-worth and they associate their possessions as status symbols. The problem with this, is that they often become hemmed in by their possessions as they start to rule their lives. Letting go and simplifying is not an easy task for a Taurean!
The Taurus is the one least likely to lose their temper over trifles. They grit their teeth and give others the benefit of the doubt over and over again…until things go TOO far, and then they blow their top! This is a frightening experience for everyone around when this happens….so look out!
Family means the world to a Taurean and they devote lots of time to their nearest and dearest. They enjoy keeping up long standing traditions especially at the holidays. They are loyal, loving and steadfast, which endears them to anyone who likes to know that their affection won’t be tossed away. They make adoring friends and they usually have a select circle of very close friends that they have know for a long time rather than a wide range of acquaintances. It takes a Taurean quite some time to get to know people properly and others have to earn a Taurean’s trust…but once they’ve done that, the Taurean becomes the sort of pal who will stand by them through thick and thin. This love and affection sometimes turns into a tendency to be possessive however. The best signs for a Taurus are Cancer, Virgo, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces.
In careers, the Taurean loves to work and are good solid members of any team…they get the job done. They may not do it very quickly as others but they keep at it and don’t cut corners. They are not interested in self-employment, but if they do decide to work for themselves they will try their hardest to make a go of it. They are attracted to work in finance, banking, and investments. Also, the beauty industry appeals to them as they are one of the best looking signs of the Zodiac, They make great models, masseurs, perfumiers. They love professions connected with nature, farming, gardening or floristry. Because many are blessed with lovely voices, they are drawn to the music industry and singing, particularly.
