The boys named him Duke. Like his namesake, John Wayne, Duke strutted around, ruled the roost, and didn't take any guff. Only difference was, our Duke was a rooster. We had just moved to the country and we were really doing the farm thing. I'm talking gardens, fruit trees, horses, cows, goats, ducks, and, of course... chickens. My attractive, city-bred wife came in the house one day with a basket full of fresh eggs and said, "You've got to do something about that crazy rooster!" Turns out he wa ... Read more...

The Sunshine Club is an outreach of both St. Joseph and St. Elizabeth Seton parishes that gives food, clothing, toys and household i ... Read more...
