EdNC’s Nation lost his mom over the weekend. On Facebook he posted, “Our family joins the ranks of those who have lost someone to addiction — and the ranks of those grieving a terrible loss in 2020.” We are with you, Nation. Please hold Nation in love and light and send him your thoughts and prayers.

Stay tuned.
