Obituary: Patty Andrews, the last of the singing sister trio the Andrews Sisters, died of natural causes. She was 94 years old.

Sister Maxine died in 1995, while LaVerne died in 1967.

Patty married Walter Weschler, pianist for the sisters, in 1952. He became their manager and demanded more pay for himself and for Patty. The two other sisters rebelled, and their differences with Patty became public. Lawsuits were filed between the two camps.

"We had been together nearly all our lives," Patty explained in 1971. "Then in one year our dream world ended. Our mother died and then our father. All three of us were upset, and we were at each other's throats all the time."

Patty Andrews is survived by her foster daughter, Pam DuBois, a niece and several cousins. Weschler died in 2010.

A former Medford (Oregon) School District principal had his license revoked by the Teacher Standards and Practices Commission. Since he is currently serving a prison term, it wasn't likely he would ever work in education again. He is serving prison time for beating up his wife.

This is the truth about who and what is really behind the move to close public schools around the country.

The impetus comes from a "Democrat."

Can't tell the truth about that, can we?

If it weren't for Reno and the blind support of the Board of Trustees to Heath Morrison, he wouldn't have been able to cook the books like he did in Reno re graduation rates and as a result buy himself the AASA sup of the year and get himself a "better" position back east. Always the narcissist, Morrison always bites the hand that feeds him. Don't worry: When he decides to go to a better position in a couple of years, he will trash talk CMS the same way.
