SAT MAY 9, 2026- PAIN, INFLAMMATION. FOUND OUT THAT #JUDO HAS PASSED AWAY

 SINCE  PIZZA NIGHT HERE,  I TRIED 1 SMALL SLICE OF MY NIECE'S LOVELY HOMEMADE PIZZA. SHE MAKES HER OWN SOURDOUGH CRUST...

I'VE HAD GREATER INFLAMMATION AND PAIN SINCE THEN!

BEST TO FAST ON SPARE FOOD.

AFTER MY SISTER'S WORK DAY, SHE AND I  WALKED TO MY NIECE'S HOME AGAIN TONIGHT.

ONCE WE ARRIVED,

I FOUND OUT, ONLY AN HOUR AGO APPROX,

THAT JUDO, J.H. SOLID, OLD FRIEND HAS RECENTLY PASSED AWAY.

VERY ODD RESPONSES FROM MY SISTER, AND MY NIECE.

NO ENGAGEMENT, FLATLINE.

 NO CONVO AT ALL UNLESS I INITIATED IT.

I GAVE THE HUSKIES THE SNACKS I HAD PREPARED.

THEN MY NIECE MOVED ON TO WATCHING PISTON'S GAME ON HER CELLPHONE,

WITH HER ELDEST TUNING IN.

INEXPLICABLE IN THE PAST.

NOW I COMPREHEND MORE.

WHAT IS STRIKING IS THAT 

I HAD JUST ASKED ABOUT ELDER FAMILY FRIEND JUDO, VIA TEXT,

 WHEN I ARRIVED IN DETROIT,  LATE LAST  THURSDAY NITE!

SIGH.

I WILL SEE THE DATE JUDO SUPPOSEDLY DIED IN HIS SLEEP RECENTLY.

I TOOK BREAK FROM THAT PRECIOUS TIME OF A VISIT..

.WHERE NO ONE WAS REALLY ENGAGED...anyway...

WALKED BACK TO CATCH UP ON SOME NECESSARY COMMUNICATIONS...

AS I AM PREPARING TO TRAVEL AGAIN SOON.

I CROSSED PATH'S ON THE SIDEWALK W/ THE MASON/FREEMASON AGAIN!

HE'S HAD THE YELLOW CAP EACH TIME I'VE SEEN HIM BEFORE.

THIS TIME SOME SORT OF "GOD BLESS AMERICA " CAP.

SIGH.

HE DID NOT SPEAK THIS TIME.

I WAS TOLD THAT HE WAS ALSO A LOCAL POLICE MAN.

HIS WIFE HAS DIED.

HE WALKS THIS SIDWALK PATH OFTEN NOW.

KEITH/ KEVEN IS HIS NAME ? HAVE TO ASK AGAIN...
