DID YOU KNOW?
According to KidsHealth.org, more than one-third of child injuries and deaths happen at home. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention notes that most incidents at home occur where there is water, such as in the bathroom or kitchen; heat or flame, like in the kitchen or around the grill; toxic substances, like those found in medicine cabinets or beneath kitchen sinks; and in places where kids can fall, such as on staircases.

Our life is March weather, savage and serene in one hour. We go forth austere, dedicated, believing in the iron links of Destiny, and will not turn on our heel to save our life: but a book, or a bust, or only the sound of a name, shoots a spark through the nerves, and we suddenly believe in will...

General eulogy preparation tips:
* Eulogies are for the living, and for everyone at a remembrance service.
* Be brief. People listen for three to five minutes. After five minutes, people stop listening.
* Do a bit of research. Talk to others. What are some childhood memories? Was there a favorite lesson learned? Was there a favorite quote or an inspiring song? What was the deceased like at work? What were some favorite accomplishments?
* Write out the eulogy. Even if you are an experienced speaker, during the emotional time of a rememberance service it is especially easy to wander.
* Write and speak from the heart. Be yourself.
* Practice the eulogy. Time it. Rehearse in front of an audience (one or two people). Listen to their feedback. Edit. Practice again.
* Have a back-up plan. In case you are unable to begin or finish, have someone else prepared to deliver the eulogy for you.
Things To Know Before Drafting A Living Will
Do I want to remove the burden of tough choices from my loved ones? A living will relieves grieving loved ones of the responsibility of making challenging decisions of invoking life-saving procedures or not - particularly if they’re not sure what you desire.
Jerome “Jerry” David Dougherty February 20, 2023
Jerome “Jerry” David Dougherty, born January 18, 1946, the middle child among the brood of 11 born to Harold and Phyllis Dougherty, passed peacefully at his cherished home on the lake, February 20, 2023. Jerry was a proud and faithful husband, predeceased by his wife of 51 years, Kimberly Dougherty, just 19 days earlier, and father to Jennifer (Tim), John (Mark) and Colleen (Bryan) to which he gave more life, love and inspiration than he could ever imagine. But being Papa to Ruairi, Gideon and Killian was undeniably his most treasured role in this life. Never did his Irish eyes smile more than when telling a story about his beautiful, smart granddaughter or his witty, fun and mischievous little buddies. And while at a distance, he never hesitated a moment to ask about his inherited grandsons Fisher and West.
Jerry is survived by his sisters, Cheryl Bryar (Bill), Pam Arrigenna (Peter), Kay McAfee (Ron); brothers, Kevin, Peter (Barb); brother-in-law, Steve Harrison (Kathy) and dozens of loving and loved nieces, nephews, grand-nieces and grand-nephews. He was predeceased by his sisters, Marcia Quinlan (Kevin), Karen Arrigenna (Jim), MaryJane Stoltman (Paul); sister-in-law, Susan Dougherty and brothers, Jim (Eileen) and John.
Jerry’s love for life, his family, his friends, his faith, his fellow Rotarians and anyone walking down the street willing to strike up a conversation was a contagious gi that was irresistible. ere was never a time that a party of 5 to 500 wasn’t called for, as long as he could convince Kim to get out the invitations and pull together the right food. He just needed time to make sure he had enough Baileys and Jameson on hand and to fastidiously manicure his lawn.
Which, of course, meant engaging his longest and most loyal friend, Ernie, and his dedicated helper, Luke.
Jerry, with his faithful better half, Kim, by his side, was an unstoppable force for good times, great laughs and generous giving. Most notably this was seen in his passion and commitment to his community as a Rotarian, living the motto “Service Above Self” every day. But, if you were lucky enough to be brought into the ‘family,’ whether by blood, sharing a Baileys, a Notre Dame bus trip or simply showing up for his favorite 3rd of July celebrations on the lake, you knew and felt his love of life, his goodwill and loyal friendship. Like Kim, he was also the beloved “American parent” to so many foreign exchange students and used that opportunity to learn about and travel the world. He treasured his years of both morning co ee at the Village restaurant and a ernoon co ee at Pizzaland. More recently the stories stemmed from “the lunch bunch” and an a ernoon co ee at Ernie and Joanne’s.
Jerry’s was a life well-lived and leaves many stories to be told of Adirondack summer vacations, shing and skiing trips with his buddies, holiday parties and beautiful sunsets on the Florida beach. While he leaves countless friends and family to remember him, Jerry le this world to celebrate with the countless many treasured family and friends with whom we know he is already having a party. You are invited to celebrate with family and friends, as he did for so many and as only he would have it. Calling hours will be Sunday, February 26, 2023 from 2-6PM at the Stephenson – Dougherty Funeral Home, 350 Genesee Street, Avon. His Funeral Mass will be held Monday, February 27, 2023 at 11:30AM at St. Agnes Church, 96 Prospect Street, Avon. Interment St. Agnes Cemetery, Avon. Donations in his honor may be made to the Avon Food Pantry.
