Brian and Gail Pruett Powell celebrated 60 years of marriage Thursday. The couple wed on Sept.

There are so many things I wish I could tell you faceto- face, dear reader, but I find that praying for you is better because I trust God to put this prayer into the hands and hearts of those who need it and will receive it. For these readers, I want you to know you are being prayed for every day. Genuinely prayed for.

I’m sure you must remember getting lost some time. Oh, the sickening panic inside. There’s nothing quite like it. I still remember at five or six being in a big department store with my mom. I was busy looking at something, engrossed in whatever was on the shelves in front of me. My mom had some shopping to do and probably not much time to do it. She had just said she would go get some things in another part of the store and I could stay and look at what had my attention. She’d be back in a few minutes.

Dear Abby: My husband inherited a nasty habit from his mother. He calls people “crazy” to discredit them so he can win arguments and stifle discussion.

Dear Dr. Roach: I have a lot of allergies, and my allergist wants to start me on allergy shots. She wants me to discontinue atenolol before starting allergy shots. Can you please shed some light on this?
