It's so important particularly if you live in a snowy and cold area. An 84 year old woman here died from exposure yesterday in Parma Hts. She had gone to the grocery store and fell after trying to get the groceries out of the trunk. No one noticed her. They say she laid there for about 12 hours in freezing temperatures judging by the time stamp on her grocery bill. She was found early the next morning by the paper delivery man barely alive. She died at the hospital. No one should have to die like that particularly in a populated area! There was so much snow surrounding her driveway and car that she could not be seen!
Take the time to check on your elderly neighbors, parents and friends!
