Had to cry today……….

By: Scoop Stanton

I am spending the week up near Yhanundasis, NY for a family vacation. Last night we got a phone call that my mother passed away. It was a bittersweet. For the past 13 months, we have been dealing with mom in a nursing home. And we have been dealing with other problems with my mother since COVID! Mom is in a better place because believe me, nobody wants to be in a nursing home!

Mom became a nurse which seems to be the family business. Many people on the Stanton family tree became a nurse. Mom also taught me hard work. From being a student in a rigorous nursing school to never taking a day off from work despite becoming injured the previous day. Mom also was responsible for my sense of humor! Mom also gave me a respect for nurses that everyone should adhere to. Its nurses that run the floor, not the doctors!

Despite losing mom, I do feel that I am still the luckiest man on God’s green Earth. It so happened I picked a particular weekend off for vacation. I saw mom on Saturday and I told her that I loved her and told her of another accomplishment that I will only share with the family. I was with the family when we got the call. I reached out to the 75 Radio family and everyone and I mean EV-ERY-ONE gave me nothing but love and support!

Everyone that I reached out to: Walter, Mike, Charlie, Ed, Alessandra, James Edwards and especially Danila gave me so much love I want to marry all of them at the same time!!!!! They asked me if I needed anything, to contact them at once. Anything! But I don’t need anything! These people have given me so much love and support, that I was in tears!

I can’t thank the 75 Radio family enough! When I say they are family…….they are family!!!!!

Until next time mom! We love you!!!!!!

Mom is probably telling Jim Morrison that I love his music!
