Thanks MM. One thing I love about Dukes is that death was rare on the show. Even an episode like RIP Henry Flatt featured a live guy. And when Rosco thought the Duke boys drowned following a chase, they managed to fool everybody and show up at the farm again. And thank goodness Artie Bender is doing just fine. That's why I was never a fan of the reunion shows. Death is no fun so there is no place for it in a county like Hazzard. That's probably why there was little mention of Bo, Luke and Daisy's parents....only once as I recall....Ran moonshine with Enos's daddy. They also mentioned when they came to live with Jesse....but even then they gave no details about their parents. Anybody think of any more?

Weird that you should say that. Lately that has been the toughest part, forgetting she is gone and then getting smacked down when I realize she is. Last night we got a call and I looked at the display screen without my glasses and mistakenly thought I saw her name on it. I immediately was excited thinking I was going to talk to her and then it hit me that she couldn't be calling. I fell right to the floor crying. And then there are the times I see something and think to myself "I have to get a picture of that and send to her."

ARREST Jesse Duke

Thanks for all the love and support everybody. The HazzardNet is normally such a fun place and I felt bad about injecting this into it but I needed all the support I can get.....and folks here have always been like family. I have so much help from others that I would prefer to wrap this thread up so I can return to normalcy here on the HN. Of course real life will never be normal. I'll never heal. Normally popping a Dukes episode in fixes everything but not this time. But it certainly can be a small part of the therapy I'll need. Thanks again. I love you folks. ❤

All of the calling hours and funeral and all the craziness of such tragedies is over and now the long term difficult stuff begins. I'll never heal but have to find some kind of happiness in the future. She would want that.

Let me repeat everything I wrote here and double it. This new video is absolutely incredible! Thank you so much.

I'll be out of commission for a bit. Catch you folks in 2 or 3 days.

Happy Birthday today Supreme Superior Commander Sheriff Rosco Purvis Coltrano the Great. We'll meet at the Boar's Nest to celebrate. Give them Duke boys a break and let them come to the party. It's nice to know that despite your differences, you and those boys really do like each other.

Good grief. Cultural stereotypes!?!? I guarantee you that they would be fine with certain cultural stereotypes though. Anybody who would flag Gilligan's Island as offensive would also be the same kind of person who would make fun of rural people.

Nothing surprises me anymore. This stuff has gone from political correctness to literal insanity. I wonder why they are now doing the warning. Did one of the castaways say a newly unacceptable word, like church something?

Thanks Hobie. Made all the arrangements today. Lots of emotional break downs behind me and many more ahead.

Thank you everybody. Just to clarify, I have 2 step daughters so have also written about them. But this was my only biological child. I never (or rarely) add the word "step" when talking about my step daughters so I'm sure it's a bit confusing. Today was my first full day without my baby. I will miss her always. It will be a long time until the days get better but it will happen. I probably won't talk about it a lot longer.....even though I'm sure you folks wouldn't mind...... .....This is a place I want to come to be happy and not sad and Dukes always makes me happy....except when one of the stars dies. And my family here always makes me happy too. Still, I might mention it one or 2 times here just for therapy. It's comforting to know we love each other so much here.

It's 3:20 AM as I type this. No sleep for me tonight. My only child was killed in a car accident just a few hours ago. This is truly the worst thing that has ever happened to me. She had just bought her first house and had only lived in it a week. She was only a few hundred feet from pulling in the driveway when a young man in a pick up truck came racing from the other direction passing 2 cars in a no passing zone and hit her head on. He wasnt hurt bad and got out of the truck before it exploded. She wasn't killed instantly but died before right after the ambulance arrived. My life has been turned upside down.

Dallas was always AFTER Dukes
