Goodnight,

FEBRUARY 13 was a day I dreaded.

ir was te be the last dav cartoonist Charles Schulz’ Peanuts
comic strip would appear in newspapers around the world.
Peanuts was a world of its owa where the children never grew
up and it lasted a remarkable 50 vears.

Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Woodstock, Linus, Sally, Lucy et af
were to gracefully retire with Schulz, who was battling colon
cancer. The 77-year-old) Minnesota-native who lived in
California made the difficult decision to put down his pen late
Jast year.

No more conferences on the mound tor the Peanuts gang.
No more Snoopy on skates or Woodstock on a Zamboni. No
more of the elusive red-headed girl. And, no, Charlie would
never solve the jiny of Lucy and kick thar football.

Betore Tread Schulz’ farewell strip on Sunday — the day it
was intended to run — [ was saddened to hear he died of a
heart attack the night before. Or was ita broken heart? He real-
ly didn’t want to retire.

Good grief. Indeed.

1 never met him, but he touched my lite. He helped me learn
to read.

My uncle Henry brought a copy of the Charlie Brown
Dictionary home from a California tip 26-years ago. |
unwrapped it and opened the cover to find Snoopy drawn per-
sonally for me by Schulz. Beyond were 399 pages of magic.

Someday, after [ find that elusive red-headed woman, i hope

Charles Schulz the book will make a difference in my chiid’s life.

Our new advanced road test will help make roads safer.

Announcing the Level 2 road test, where new drivers in the

be involved in a crash as experienced drivers. So we
designed the Level 2 road test to help increase new
driver competence. Now, new drivers must pass the
