IN MEMORIAM…
A wonderful person passed away last night, after a long illness. His name is Bill Bradford, and he was the beloved husband of Nikki McCussland. Bill and Nikki were great supporters of the Arts in Key West and, espcially, the Waterfront Playhouse. Bill had been ailing for a long while, and Nikki was his devoted caretaker…a real trooper! Our thoughts and prayers are with Nikki and Bill’s families. You can send Nikki notes and messages to her at: 521 Grinnell St., Key West, FL 33040. We were all blessed to know Bill, enjoy his sense of humor, wit, and intelligence. He was a very dear and special man and he will be greatly missed.
IT’S THANKFUL THURSDAY…..
Ricky Ritzel, famed pianist from New York and Key West, sent me a thankful message. Ricky, has had a difficult year, what with losing his young son not long ago. Ricky shares…..”It has been a rough road, but I want to say that I am most thankful for my wonderful friends who have supported me during these past few months. I really don’t think Ted or I would have made it without all of their support and love.” Ricky, our thoughts, prayers, and love continue to be with you and Ted. We all miss you in Key West and look forward to your return to The KEYS! Readers….PLEASE continue to send me your own messages of thankfulness….surely you must be thankful for something…a person, an event, a moment, a state of mind, a place, whatever! I would love to share these thoughts in my daily Events List!

PS Now check out the Birthday/Anniversary List and LEO Personality….If you want to be a part of this LIST, please send me your birthday month and day (not year), that of your partner, and your anniversary day and month if it pertains!
THE LEO PERSONALITY….July 23-August 22!!!
This is the most Regal sign of the Zodiac. Every Leo, worth their salt, has an air of dignity and they behave accordingly. Leos know they are different from everyone else and they want us all to know it! They know that we would wither up without them in our lives. Most Leos have great hair, and they take a lot of trouble to maintain their tresses. They are exuberant and enthusiastic, as well as very warm and affectionate. We all need at least one good Leo friend to boost our egos…and you will receive many boosts from your Leo friend. To be accepted into their inner circle, you will have to pass “the acid test.”
Most Leos are confident and do not feel the need to prove their greatness. They do not have to put on airs to impress anyone, as they are naturally impressive. Leos are very organized and brilliant at making things happen. Their inate air of authority makes everyone sit up and take notice.
Family is key to every Leo’s heart. They keep up with everyone, love to stay in touch, gather relatives around, and they are hugely interested in their children’s lives. Leo is the sign of Creativity and they love to express their talents. They excel at acting, cooking, singing, dance, painting…..this is the true sign of Drama! They demand center stage….it is a rare Leo who is satisfied to work on the sidelines. We all love our LEO Friends!!!!!
