Here is a wonderful story about Gary who was an avid golfer. He played his last round in August and on the last hole and final shot....he got a hole in one.
Now how's that for going out in style?
May we all be so fortunate to live life so well.
if you've heard other remarkable tales, i'd like to read them too!

Hmmm...Let's see what other "miraculous" stories come forth. ..should be interesting!
