Loss of a dear friend puts blogs on the back burner….

  I haven’t been able to get a blog in lately, and here is why….Last Saturday, we unexpectedly lost a good friend to Liver Cancer….Don Hann and his wife Linda use to run Don’s Olde Tyme Inn.. This a very old tavern that has been in downtown Sandwich for years and years..It still has the original wooden floor and an old mural painted on the mirror behind the bar.  This place has been called Peaches, Dicks, and many other names over the years…When the Hanns bought it, they renamed it Don’s Olde Tyme Inn…

  A few years ago, they sold it…and it’s name changed to just Olde Tyme Inn…So, just a note to say that Dennis and I were busy helping Don’s family relive memories in fellowship and sadness…sharing a few adult beverages, helping with the funeral luncheon, which was HUGE!!..It seemed I was deemed the official dishwasher…Don would have laughed if he could have seen me up to my elbows in crusted Lasagna roasters and baked on spaghetti noodles…

Here is a photo of the bar…It really is a neat place…Lots of us had many great times in there when Don and Linda had it…Rest in peace, dear friend….you will be missed by many….

I will blog a real blog later on this week….Thanks for being patient…Sometimes we have no time to even THINK about a blog, when life reminds us what is really important…
