âIâll see you in heaven.â
It was the last thing Al Braccolino, 90, of Crown Point, told one of his daughters as paramedics loaded him into an ambulance Nov. 16. COVID-19 forced him into the final fight of his life.
Ten days later, the chair Al usually occupied at the Thanksgiving table would sit empty. The husband to his wife of 70 years, father of three and grandfather of six died on the holiday.
Alâs daughter, Sandra Noe, was herself suffering from COVID-19, which she contracted while caring for her sick parents, when the virus forced Alâs hospitalization.
Noe, 66, is no stranger to helping elderly shut-ins weather isolation.

I feel like Mr. Miyagi in the Karate Kid movie saying Wax on, wax off , only now it s Mask on, mask off . Or maybe I m channeling Shakespeare s Hamlet, with his famous existential crisis phrased as, To be, or not to be? .
Today, March 10th, marks the official lift of the statewide mask mandate in Texas, and restaurants and bars can operate at 100% occupancy.
Many businesses in the Central Texas area are still following the CDC guidelines to help slow the spread of the coronavirus, including asking customers to wear a mask. H-E-B seems to be catching the most flack for it, even though they re only asking politely while some employees demand stricter implementation of their mask policy.
