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.

May 26: Gold in Strange Places; A Man Gets Stuck in a Sausage; and Solving California's Fiscal Woes

DateWednesday, May 26, 2010
  • “Insurgent violence” isn’t the only kind going on in Iraq.  Iraqi police say armed robberies of gold shops in Baghdad have left 15 people dead.  Headline:  Baghdad, Iraq has gold shops.  Who knew?? 
  • Toyota suspends sales of Lexus LS Sedans this time...because of a niggling little problem involving, you know, “steering.”  Unhappily, the LS front wheels sometimes have a problem returning to the center position after you turn the doggone thing.  I know, I know.  “Nitpicking.”  Sales are expected to resume in about a month…unless something else pops up.  Like unanticipated spontaneous combustion of driver’s seat or something…
  • Jesse James tells ABC’s “Nightline” he believes he is a shoo-in for the distinction of “most hated man in the world” for cheating on Sandra Bullock.  British Petroleum CEO Tony Hayward expected to formally challenge James for title before the week’s out.  
  • The Check’s In The Mail.  Unfortunately, The Mail’s In The Shed.  And former postal worker Earl Hicks may soon be in the can.  Hicks’ sister discovered thousands of pieces of mail Earl was supposed to deliver in Detroit and Oak Park, Michigan stashed in a shed behind his house – and she threw him under the postal truck; turned him in.  Hicks says he just got overwhelmed. Couldn’t take it.  All that mail and none of it was for him.  Screw it.  Ditched deliveries and is now looking at a mail theft rap.
  • No, you really don’t want to watch the sausage being made.  Particularly when there’s a guy inside the sausage seasoning machine.  Which is what happened to maintenance man at DiLuigi Sausage Co. in Danvers, Mass.  Somehow, the machine activated while he was cleaning the thing and it sucked him in.  He’ll survive, but is expected to taste, smell like Jimmy Dean for months.
  • Airlines in Major Policy Shift: No longer will “nickel-and-dime” you to death.  Will now “dollar-and-dime” you to death, instead.  Five largest U.S. carriers, American, Continental, Delta, United and US Airways, slap $10 to $30 surcharges on top of  “published” fares for entire peak summer travel period…for the privilege of being able to experience, first-hand, end-of-life conditions of sardines in aluminum containers.
  • California Budget Crisis About to be Solved.  Experts say a devastating “mega-earthquake” off the coast of California is now considered twice as likely as previously predicted…and would be accompanied by a massive tsunami.  Population centers could slide into ocean…completely eliminating requirements for expensive city services…and dramatically reducing state’s crippling deficit.  Developing…
