Sending love and prayers for blessings and peace to all those closest to Don Cravens who passed from this life early this evening, June 27, 2018, after a lengthy battle with cancer.
His Uncle Ed Waggener who has known him all his life is remembering Don as "a little boy whose charismatic personality was obvious from day one and only got brighter and better as he lived and grew."
Don's cousin Mitzi Bault wrote, "Heaven just got a Angel. God had Mercy for Don. He is no longer in pain. May our Heavenly Father please wrap your arms around Aunt Jean, Elaine, Beth and all Don’s children and grandchildren."
Services will be held in Indianapolis at a date to be announced later. - Linda Waggener

Wikipedia has this to say about Cyanocitta cristata: "The blue jay can be beneficial to other bird species, as it may chase predatory birds, such as hawks and owls, and will scream if it sees a predator within its territory. It has also been known to sound an alarm call when hawks or other dangers are near, and smaller birds often recognize this call and hide themselves away accordingly. It may occasionally impersonate the calls of raptors, especially those of the red-tailed and red-shouldered hawks, possibly to test if a hawk is in the vicinity, though also possibly to scare off other birds that may compete for food sources. It may also be aggressive towards humans who come close to its nest, and if an owl roosts near the nest during the daytime the blue jay mobs it until it takes a new roost."

The historic Adair County Courthouse. A burst of new businesses on the Public Square, an invigorated arts touch, continued emphasis on floral displays and landscaping, and new emphasis on downtown safety, all contribute to drawing more and more visitors to Columbia's Downtown. It's a great place to enjoy the pleasing architecture of this grand old building. - EW Comments | Permalink Older Photos
