LORA AKERS Continued from page 9 They knowbecause they sawthem, Lora said. Some stories were related to Lora in person, by people who asked her to meet with them. Some, she said had never divulged the holy incident with anyone before. It made for highly emotional encounters. Lora had become a believer. You ait down with these people with tears running down their face while they tell you their story. They have no advantage telling me, theres no gain for them, she divulged. With all the stories gathered in Lora had came up with a solution. She would compile all the long narratives in the first volume and tha shorter stories in a second volume. Yet, she woe left with a feeling of let down. No wore stories were coining in. The poet office box was empty, there wen no new messages. And while Lora couldnt be more excited for her hooka going to press shortly, life had sort of deflated. She missed meeting people, she missed hearing their stories which has prompted Lore to seekpub-licatio-n of a third book and has put her end feet again on angel seeking phenomena gathering. Those interested in Loras publication (untitled as yet) or would like to submit their own angel stories can learn more by visiting her at web site Angel Stories www.afhetinc.conVmanyangels.Lora can also be reached at Lora Akers, P.O. or Box 1622, Price, Utah 84501-162- 2 many angel8angeifire.com its true, Shauna Marie Carr Bruce Edward Fcaster MINUTES FOR REGULAR COMMISSION MEETING HELD APRIL 2, 2001 CummiKKiim mintuee may be edited insuranoo fund to help counties with fnr space.
