Unfortunately, “Sonny & Cher” singer Sonny Bono’s angel was out with the flu that day.

Robb, that angel reminds me of that statue at 30th Street Station where the archangel Michael is lifting that fallen soldier, and on the plinth are the names of the 1,307 Pennsylvania Railroad employees who gave the ultimate sacrifice in World War II.

Beautiful♡.

Miracles are all but an allusion. There’s always a reasonable explanation for everything.

I suspect the fact they’re all still speaking to each other might be the greater miracle.

Yes

I believe in miracles

Where’re you from, you sexy thing,

I hope that all nurses and medical staff have their own personal angel.

Would that be Rick Hart making sure his daughter didn’t join him prematurely? (For those who don’t know, Rick Hart is Marcy’s biological father)

Why aren’t they wearing helmets? Not going to help if you run into a tree, but they help prevent concussions when you fall.

Nearly the same thing happened to me once on my bicycle.

Awww – how sweet! I love the tie-in back to the photo album storyline (Marcy’s dad teaching her how to ski).

Love today’s strip. Wish more guardian angles were around in this world today.

Michael Kennedy died on Dec. 31, 1997 and Sonny Bono on Jan. 5, 1998. Both skiing and I believe both hit a tree.

Maybe we should have seen this as it happened instead of focusing on Shark running from the mob, again.

It DOES count, though.

My aunt Marjorie Huie Walker Stenborg would come to visit and within two days none of the family was still speaking to any other member. I used to love to watch her workmanship.

Kind of hard not to believe when it happens to you.

Not a skiing non-accident but I took a corner going too fast down a hill on a century ride. The helmet broke apart on landing and my sunnies took a rock down one lens that could have been an eye. In their destruction they saved my life and vision. Cheapest life insurance ever.

Sonny’s angel was probably warn out from some of his other escapades.
