There is a reason why we give at Christmas Everyone knows that Christmas is the season of giving but some may not understand or even care why gifts are bestowed in December.

Widowhood 101: The cremation mishap
Acting first and thinking later has consequences The love of my life for 45 years and my husband of 40 passed away on March 7 2021. My children, brother-in-law and I decided together to have his remains cremated and my sister-in-law purchased a beautiful blue urn in a shade that was his favorite color.
