It is my prayer that Jesus wrapped His Arms Around You and dried your tears.
My Thoughts and Prayers go out to her family. It is a sad day indeed. A small corner of the world came together to find Jessica and bring her home. We had all hoped for a better outcome. Comments Showing most recent comments first [Show in chronological order instead] |
Walking the Fence Line ![]() - Archives - Blog RSS feed - Comments RSS feed - Send email to Bonnie Bird - Login Fixing fence is the one of the hardest jobs on a ranch. I no longer live on a ranch, but I do know what hard work is. Fences are everyone's concern, but nowadays,the "hole" is always your neighbor's side not your own. It used to be that you would respect your neighbor and mend the fence together. If their cows got in your field, a simple phone call resolved the problem. You might even saddle up your own horse and help them gather them up. We need more people who are willing to roll their sleeves up and fix the fence regardless of who your neighbor is.
There are people in this country who need to be reminded that a fence is like the way you should conduct your life. Your posts should be straight and neat. The wire needs to be stretched tight and your gate might be closed, but can still be easily opened. And most of all, we can all saddle
up together and ride the range, it won't matter if you have an Appaloosa, Quarter Horse or Thoroughbred. The cows still have to be gathered, fences have to be fixed, and the range is a wide open space of opportunity for us all.

That pain never goes away ! My sister in law was murdered back in the late 90's and I can remember that day as if it just happened yesterday... She was shot 3 times when she answered her door one morning and crawled across her living room to the phone. She was able to dial 911, and then she died.
Her father died a year later. She left behind 2 kids 10 & 11 years old.
Donna and Jeremiah haven't come home yet. It is going to be a very difficult time for them and the other members of the family.
It was not the first time I have been a couple degrees separated from a murder. It leaves a hole in your heart for a long long time.
No words can express the pain the family and friends are feeling. It's so sad to loose a child but to loose one in such a horrible way.
My heart goes out to the family and friends of Jessica....
So sorry
Prayers to family
