Was the title of the email Dan sent me with the following information.
Loome Theological Bookstore, of Stillwater, is changing owners.
Loome is the greatest bookstore ever.
Basically.
It's the largest second hand theological bookstore in the United States and is the go-to for theologians, universities and everyone else around the world. Every spring, Dan and I happily pick a Saturday to wander over, money jingling in our pockets. And then we leave five hours later, pockets silent, books under our arms, and exuberant smiles on our faces.
Well, it seems Dr. Loome is retiring and sold the business to two young guys. One of which was our Natural Family Planning instructor when we got married. Chris has worked there for as many years as we've been married and we get to catch up with him on our annual pilgrimage to the Greatest Bookstore on Earth (aka Loome) I'm sure he and Andrew (the other new owner) will continue to lead the iconic bookstore down the path of righteousness.
Here's the whole scoop with thanks to Dan for letting me know of the change, and northlandcatholic for providing the link:

Gianna Update: Gianna is cancer-free! Praise God! After receiveing a diagnosis of stage four cancer, four rounds of chemo, and lots of prayers, the doctors were able to remove the tumor on Monday. The tumor was tested for any living cancer cells, but there were none!!! The cancer is dead, and the Samountry family is breathing, like, the biggest sigh of relief ever.
