PETER CATHOLIC CHURCH 95 MARKET STREET MOUNT CLEMENS, MICHIGAN 48043 April 26, 2020 Phone: (586)468-4578 Website: stpetermtclemens.weconnect.com My Dear Friends, Well, so far it has been a questionable year. It is not only the matter of the coronavirus but of the weather. I mean we are in the middle of April and we are still getting snow showers! I realize that we live in Michigan but even the birds do not know what to do with this stuff. Now, having said that, I would like to share with you a few things that are on my mind. The first thing is the issue of peoples’ live versus the economy. I realize that both are very important. I also know that you cannot divorce one from another. However, in that marriage, lives have to be the priority. This is why I cannot understand the Governor of Georgia this past week saying some- thing to the effect that the economy is more important than lives. I never thought that I would hear something from that from a supposed leader. This is just like one of the pseudo television doctors saying two weeks ago that we should just reopen the schools and accept that 23% of the children would probably die. I realize that we are in the midst of something that we have never seen before but where have our values gone? I want to get back to work the same as everyone else. Yes, I do know people who are at the end of their rope without having an income to pay the bills, health care coverage to protect their families and a sense of worthlessness because they cannot do anything to protect their loved ones.

    137 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME All-time Florida State gridiron greats Walter Jones and Derrick Brooks are used to making history. The longtime NFL stars added an achievement that will without a doubt move to the top of their accolade-filled biographies when they were inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame inAugust, 2014. Jones and Brooks became the first pair of first-ballot Hall of Famers from the same class who attended the same college in over 40 years. The pair’s journey together started 20 years ago. Just as Brooks was wrapping up his All-America career at Florida State in 1994, Jones was joining the Seminoles out of Holmes Community College (Miss.) for the 1995 season. DERRICK BROOKS Linebacker 1991-94 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame WALTER JONES Offensive Tackle 1995-96 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame 138 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME They never played on the same team at Florida State, but Jones distinctly remembers how excited he was to follow in the footsteps of the star linebacker whom he called the face of the Seminoles’ program. Jones and Brooks were the best at what they did for over a decade in the NFL. Brooks went to 11 Pro Bowls and never missed a game in 14 seasons (all with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers), while Jones became the NFL’s premier left tackle, going to nine Pro Bowls over 12 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks. Both retired in 2008, and, six years later, Jones and Brooks were teammates for the first time as first-ballot Hall of Famers.
