Ron and Jeannie Yeargin persevere through blindness and COVID-19, staying active and looking at the bright side of life.
Ron and Jeannie Yeargin got more than they bargained for when they began a new chapter in their life at BridgePoint at Los Altos.
They moved into their apartment Feb. 25, and were enjoying settling in and meeting their new neighbors. But on March 13 (Friday the 13th, she noted), Jeannie was taken to the hospital with a high fever.
The doctors sent her home to BridgePoint, thinking she might have a bladder infection. When the test results came back, however, it was worse than that:
The year 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic have forced us all to say goodbye to many things; a stable routine, comfortably gathering with friends and family and of course, many beloved artists and pioneers in the music world.
Locally Houston has also said goodbye to some live music staples with the death of musician Steve Reno and Warehouse Live’s beloved doorman George Longoria. As COVID-19 has proved repeatedly, it does not discriminate.
The latest to succumb to COVID-19 was country music legend and trailblazer, Charley Pride. The 86-year-old Pride had performed just last month at the Country Music Awards show where he was honored for his work and legacy.
