Perpetual Calendar: CLICK HERE

Prior to 1582, every year divisible by 4 was a leap year. Since a year contains only 365.242199 days (slightly less than 365.25 days), an error of ten days accumulated over the centuries. To compensate for this error, Pope Gregory XIII (after whom the Gregorian Calendar is named) decreed that the ten days between October 5, 1582 and October 14, 1582 would be eliminated from the calendar. This made October 1582 the shortest month, with only 21 days. After 1582, years divisible by 100 are NOT leap years, unless they are also divisible by 400. Thus, 1900 is not a leap year, but 2000 is. Also, every month that begins with a Sunday, will have a Friday the 13^th.

Anther was a good friend to the Collins and Caddess families. She was always kind and considerate and made a positive impact on people she came in contact with. We loved her and miss her. As of September 2007, she does not have a marker on her grave, and it is uncertain exactly where the marker needs to be placed. If anyone can help, please CONTACT Me.
