Lost another beekeeper

This was my second cousin that I just recently found out he was a beekeeper. Had over 90 hives scattered out inside the city. He would buy houses and buildings and flip them.
Bees are bees and do as they please!

I think the lesson is that life if fragile, and you can be here today and gone tomorrow.  I heard Neil Cavuto say that he has MS and he tries to suck all the good out of each day.  We should all do the same.

The real shame of this is how cheap a life is to some people.  It's a terrible thing to take a life.
