This Isn’t Our Last Love Letter 

   
Dear Don Don,
 
Way back in 92

I walked into the room and knew

Never felt this way before

I shook your hand while gazing into your eyes

And the feeling grew

As I took a seat I knew

A love that would have my heart

Forever

I knew

Way back in 92


They say love at first sight doesn’t always last or isn’t true

We were the exception to that rule

Our love had no where to hide

A spark set fire

As if this is how the universe started


I never doubted our love or what we could do

Together we grew

Forming a bond everlasting

That became our glue

My euphoria was YOU

I’m eternally grateful for the love and life we shared

For how fortunate we were :

“to have and to hold
through sickness and in health
Til death do us part”

Until we are together again

This isn’t our last love letter

I love you with all my heart and soul

Yours forever,

Deirdre  (Mrs. Hank Snow)

I’m fortunate to have fallen in love with, marry and make a life with the sharpest, coolest, funniest, most rare, bad ass, tender loving, loyal man on the planet, my husband Don Imus.


A True American Hero

 

I don’t know why it has been so hard for me to write about my dear friend Don Imus.

I certainly know what he meant to me, my family, my charity, my hospital and the millions of fans that listened and loved him for so many years.


I keep reading all the beautiful condolences that people are writing about how much a part of their lives were effected by listening to him over the years.

But what most people don’t talk enough about is what he did for all of us.

 

In every sense of the word, he was an American Hero. His work with children with so many different illnesses and his dedication to their future was unmatched by anyone I have ever known or heard about.

Besides raising over $100,000,000 for so many causes, he took care of young people for over 20 years in a state where he could not breathe.  Along with his incredible wife Deirdre, he created a world where children were not defined by their disease. That was a miracle! He was a miracle.

 

I will miss him ever day for the rest of my life.
I was blessed to be a part of his and Deirde’s life.
No one will ever do what he did.
I love you Don Imus - A TRUE AMERICAN HERO

A Tribute To Don Imus

Children’s Health Defense joins parents of vaccine-injured children and advocates for health freedom in remembering the life of Don Imus, a media maverick in taking on uncomfortable topics that most in the mainstream press avoid or shut down altogether. His commitment to airing all sides of controversial issues became apparent to the autism community in 2005 and 2006 as the Combating Autism Act (CAA) was being discussed in Congress. The Act, which was ultimately signed into law by George W. Bush in December of 2006, created unprecedented friction among parents of vaccine-injured children and members of Congress; parents insisted that part of the bill’s billion-dollar funding be directed towards environmental causes of autism including vaccines, while most U.S. Senators and Representatives tried to sweep any such connections under the rug.

Don Imus Leaves a Trail of Way More Than Dust 

Don Imus Was Abrupt, Harsh And A One-Of-A-Kind, Fearless Talent

By Michael Riedel - The one and only time I had a twinge of nerves before appearing on television was when I made my debut in 2011 on “Imus in the Morning” on the Fox Business Channel. I’d been listening to Don Imus, who died Friday at 79, since the 1990s as an antidote the serious (bordering on the pompous) hosts on National Public Radio. I always thought it would be fun to join Imus and his gang — news anchor Charles McCord, producer Bernard McGuirk, comedian Rob Bartlett — in the studio, flinging insults back and forth at one another. And now I had my chance. I was invited on to discuss to discuss “Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark,” the catastrophic Broadway musical that injured cast members daily.

Today in the "News": Sorcery-Related Crime, Uncanny Viagra Results, and Where All the Spring Breakers Have Gone 

DateMonday, March 22, 2010
  • There are worse things than having your bonus reduced: Top North Korean finance official is removed from post “with extreme prejudice” for coming up with a currency reform that had some adverse effects in the secretive Communist nation.  Pak Nam-gi was transported to a shooting range in Pyongyang, according to Yonhap news agency – and removed from office.  Forever.  Cause of death, “acute lead poisoning.”
  • Today’s no-nonsense “Islam legal system” story arrives by way of Saudi Arabia, where Ali Hussain Sibat, former Lebanese radio host, is sentenced to die. Why?  Because he gave advice and, unfortunately, “predictions” on his call-in show.  Crime? “Sorcery.” Saudi religious police grabbed him when he traveled to Saudi Arabia for an Islamic religious pilgrimage. How about just a good “talking to” maybe, no?  No.  Off with his head.
  • Mexican violence reported to be frightening away American tourists; emptying border town streets.  Government officials wonder where the heck Spring Break traffic has gone.  Possibly someplace, analysts suggest, where 18,000 people have not been killed since December 2006 in a drug war.  Just a theory. 
  • New “economic indicator.”  Riverside County, California woman sticks up 11 people at grocery store…. nets six dollars. Eleven people. Six bucks. Won’t even buy a box of bullets for the semi-automatic she carried.  Hey, things are tough all over. 
  • “What the Lord has joined together, let no man put asunder.”  Well, yes and no.  58-year-old James Wallace is a Bible scholar – which is why, Minnesota police say, he was fine with the fact that his bride was his niece, and 10 years old. Pointed to First Corinthians 6:12:  “Everything is permissible for me.”  Actually, Jim, no it’s not.  Which is why, police point out, Jim is now in jail having had the book thrown at him.  “Good” Book?  Not known.
  • “On second thought, I’ll take a Toyota after all.”  Near Arlington, Washington, a 59-year-old motorist’s ’78 Buick suddenly veered from roadway and crashed down an embankment. Investigators say driver was a victim of “unintended steering wheel coming off in his hands, with unsurprising “loss of directional control.”  Injuries described as non-life threatening.
  • Atlanta, Ga:  45-year-old Arelisha Bridges charged with murdering her husband following a domestic altercation.  Police say Ms. Bridges is a lobbyist for an anti-domestic-violence organization. Apparently, just not a deeply committed one.
  • “If you should experience an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, contact your doctor immediately.”   Four hours?  How about TWENTY-ONE DAYS!!  Which was the regrettable experience of a 55-year-old Kolkata, India man who took a really serious overdose of Viagra, with the “21 day” result.  Sought treatment far too late, urosurgeon Avishek Mukherjee reports. They were able to save his life, but … not his … well, you know.
