Remembering a friend; Milton Hankins

Blog Posted by Lin Lane: 12/5/2024 10:02:00 AM

On December 5, 2022, Milt posted a poem telling us it was his 81st birthday. December 22nd will mark two years since he's been lost to us. I posted part of another of his poems, 'I Shall Think of You,' on my page under this blog's title, if anyone is interested in reading it.

What a beautiful offering in honor of Milt you wrote in January of 23, Constance. Our Kentucky friend lives on in our memories. Thank you for sharing your poem here with us.

aww Lin what a lovely tribute, Milton was so supportive to me and many others on the site, he encouraged me to self publish my silly poems. I miss him dearly and feel emotional when i go back over and old poem and see his comments. hugs Jan xx

I feel our loss when I read an old comment he made on one of my poems or see his photograph. He encouraged so many of us. Thanks, Jan.
