MARCH
HIGHLIGHTS
By Marilyn Appner-Falor C.O. Sgt (Ret)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have surely had enough snow for awhile, but it seems to be melting slow enough that we won’t have too much flooding. Since March came in like a lamb, does that mean it will go out like a lion? Just so it warms up a little in time for Easter.
We had to make a weekend trip to Waynesburg, PA to attend the memorial service for Dr. Stanley Falor M. D. (74). Bernie’s only brother passed away Feb. 14th (his wife’s birthday). Sherri asked Bernie to sing “The Lord’s Prayer,” since he had sung that at their wedding almost 35 years ago. We returned just in time to miss the big snow Feb. 22nd.
We were also sad to hear that Monroe City P.D. Sgt. Charles Moore had passed away. Charlie attended several of our 2nd. Monday Retiree Breakfasts at the Eatery. He was glad to tell about his early years, when Col. Sanders established his first Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant on a part of his father’s property.
We encourage you to attend the 2009 MCSO Recognition dinner at the F.O.P. hall on April 23th, 2010. The Monroe County Deputies Assn. did a great job last year. It is a great meal, a chance to congratulate the recent MCSO retirees, and they will have a band again this year. The price is $15 for everyone.
It has been difficult to do tracking with our puppy, so we have reverted to mostly indoor training, until the weather clears up. We heard from Ret. K-9 Deputy Greg Mominee that he will be in the area for training and competition sometime in March, and then he and “Razar” plan to go to Germany in April to attend a special seminar presented by one of his closest friends.

THE LITTLE THINGS
THOSE ANNOYING ' L I T T L E ' Things
MAY HAVE A PURPOSE
Email from Karen Hudson (C.O.)

The ' L I T T L E ' Things~
As you might remember, the head of a company survived 9/11 because his son started kindergarten.
Another fellow was alive because it was His turn to bring donuts.
One woman was late because her Alarm clock didn't go off in time.
One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike because of an auto accident. One of them missed his bus.
One spilled food on her clothes and had to take time to change.
One's car wouldn't start. One couldn't get a taxi.
The one that struck me was the man
Who put on a new pair of shoes that morning, Took the various means to get to work but before he got there, he developed a blister on his foot. He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.
That is why he is alive today.
Now when I am stuck in traffic ,
Miss an elevator,
Turn back to answer a ringing telephone ...
All the little things that annoy me.
I think to myself, This is exactly where
God wants me to be At this very moment..
Next time your morning seems to be
going wrong, You can't seem to find the car keys, You hit every traffic light,
Don't get mad or frustrated; It may be just that God is at work watching over you.
May God continue to bless you with all those annoying little things and may you remember their possible purpose.
Pass this on to someone else, if you'd like.
There is NO LUCK attached.
If you delete this, it's okay: God's Love Is Not Dependent On E-Mail!!
(From Karen Hudson)
