UCHS Band students excel!
Submitted by Shirlee Grabko on Mon, 04/22/2024 - 14:57There are many interesting people living in Union County. Some of them are senior citizens with fascinating tales to tell from their lives. I also discovered a couple of impressive people who are seniors at our Union County High School. I’ve known musicians most of my (long) life. Very seldom have I met one who also writes music. Landyn Hobbins has been doing this for years. He is a emotional writer who believes that music is something that everyone can relate to, and that music connects people - especially during emotional highs and lows.

Stirred some memories!
My father had a sheltie named Sable for a long time - about 16 years I think. That dog's best friend was a scraggly little cat named Sassy. Sable became a little frail with arthritis late in life. Sassy would hunt for her, actually bringing moles, mice, and chipmunks she had hunted and offering them to Sable. Sable was well-fed on a diet of high quality dog food, but Sassy apparently felt the need to supplement her elderly friend's diet. Sable passed away one night in her sleep. For several days following, Sassy would continue to bring the fruits of her hunts to Sable's napping spot and howl for her. She was actually mourning! It was both sweet and bitterly sad to see. Your account in this article of a similar situation stirred that memory up in a big way. Nice work.
