Angels on Call listener Annmarie did some research about a house Mary was asked about on Dec. 15, 2010.

From Annmarie:

I was listening to the woman who called about the haunted house that she lived in this morning. As I’m sitting in a ridiculously long traffic jam I decided to google “wierton west virginia history.”

Maybe you already found this….but in case you haven’t looked it up yet…

Not only did you say murder, you actually said “Ax murder.”

Mary, you are good!

Here’s an item from Lois Alete Fundis, reference librarian at the Mary H. Weir Public Library in Weirton, W.Va.:

1887

May 9: Brutal double ax-murder in Holliday’s Cove near Cove School, near where railroad (and crossing at Cove Road) is being built. Convicted of killing widow Drusilla McWha and her daughter Eliza Baker is Eliza’s husband, teacher Van Buren Baker, who dies seven years later in prison still insisting he didn’t do it.

The news I’m about to disclose to you comes with salty tears as well as wondrous dreams for my future, as well as for yours.

You see, my dear friends and radio family, I have made the very hard decision to not renew my contract with Sirius/XM for the upcoming year.

I do so with no malice or negativity, but because I chose to work on other projects and other dreams in the upcoming year.

I will miss you all terribly as I will miss my Sirius/XM family.

Three years is a long time to spend almost every weekday morning together and I feel as though the caller’s as well as the listener’s to “Angels On Call,” have become more like a second family and best friends then just a radio show call-in show. I will miss you all dearly and you count on being in my daily thoughts and prayers as I hope I will be in yours.

God bless you all and remember, it’s never goodbye and only ‘so long!’

Happy New Year and Ciao Bella,

P.S. You can always contact me on my website to find out what upcoming events, including a January 14 seminar at State Theatre in Easton, Pa., or just to say hello!

Love you more!

This is the poem Mary read on “Angels on Call” this morning in honor of our 9/11 heroes

By Rochelle Moore

Many hearts are left to break,
here, at home, in USA.
Many souls will not return,
a great loss of life to pay.
Parents, sons and daughters,
fighting for that day.
That freedom comes to everyone

and terrorism, held at bay.

We looked at 9/11
with minds completely numb.
How could this ever happen?
How low our world has come.
It took the planet by surprise
and shook us to our core.
Mindless, violent tragedy, cry
“NO NEVER ANYMORE”.

In every heart and every soul
across the USA.
An evil darkness descended,
stays with us till this day.
T’was only sixty years or so
that Hitler’s crimes abhorred.
We promised then, “NO NOT AGAIN,
NOT EVER, ANYMORE”.

We lost so many things that day,
it’s one we’ll not forget.
Heroes came from all around
with all they have, abet.
People from around the world
stood by us at this time.
No human soul with conscience
could understand this crime.

Lamenting all those heroes
who’s hearts are heavy still.
Their valor and their bravery
not let their spirit kill.
To each and all who helped that day,
Ground Zero, nations all.
We thank you for your help and pray
for those who heard our call.

Like tradegies of all terror
from past, to evermore.
It’s time we say out loud and clear,
“NO NEVER, NEVER MORE”.
For every man and woman,
child and family.
This dark part within our hearts
pray for their gallantry.

We all of us are heroes,
we all must strive for peace.
Tattoo this saying on your soul,
at your peril if ignored;
“NEVER, NEVER ANYMORE”
Dear God, not anymore.

SIRIUS XM Radio is assembling an audience of friends and listeners of Angels on Call for a special live studio taping Sept. 17, 2010 in Washington, D.C.

We’ll provide pictures after the event, so come back!

By Mary Occhino

(This column first appeared on Syfy.com as part of the “Mary Knows Best“  reality series web page.)

What I’m about to tell many of my new friends and viewers may come as a complete shock to some of you because when you see me on TV you see a woman who doesn’t stay still and is less than quiet. But to others who have already read one of my three books (which in all of my books I discuss how my medical condition actually enhanced my psychic ability) are very aware that I’ve had my share of health problems and concerns.

What health problems am I speaking of? Or I should say, what health problem did the universe see fit to gift me with in order to teach me life lessons I was ignoring prior to my diagnosis? My friends, I have and live with Multiple Sclerosis.

I was diagnosed with MS in 1992 and was housebound for close to 8 years and was totally disabled. So much so that I was deemed unable to work by the Social Security Administration and was told I would be disabled for the rest of my life. Boy, did I prove everyone wrong and in a big way!

Just how did I overcome MS? The first step was by never allowing anyone including myself to allow MS define who Mary Occhino is. The second step was by never giving up on a healthier future. And most importantly, by listening to my body and firing any doctor who wouldn’t listen to me when I said what I was feeling!

I overcame what most of my friends and family believed would be a life behind the four walls of my home by listening to my intuition. An intuition that told me what was good for me to eat and what wasn’t.

I overcame my fear of not being able to stand longer than 2 minutes at a time, by meditation along with conventional medication as well as homeopathic meds. And most importantly I sought out the best doctor I could find, (which doesn’t always mean the most expensive!)

But, in order to get back the independent life I once knew and allow the remedies, which the doctors had ordered for me to work, I first had to own the person I wanted to be again. I had to see myself healthy again and believe that there would be a tomorrow where I would be able to live an unassisted life again.

I visualized a tomorrow where I would be able to walk again and most importantly a tomorrow where people didn’t look at me with sadness and sorrow for my confinement.

So, for those of you who take your good health for granted …as you read this column whisper to yourself and to the universe, “thank you!”

For those of you who may have a chronic ailment presently and feel as though your life can never be better than it is today … wash that thought away from your mind immediately and in its place see and own these words:

“What you see you shall become!”

Because if you can’t see you well, you won’t be! And if you’re like I was: sick and tired of being sick and tired! Then work your backside off by first listening to your body and finding the best doctors who will listen to your symptoms, complaints and don’t take NO as an answer from anyone ever if they tell you there’s no hope for the future, because where there is life there is hope. And where’s there’s hope, you too can overcome any obstacle.

I wish you good health and the wisdom to be grateful for it! Many blessings and I’m still counting my blessings every day!

Mary Occhino … I may have MS but MS doesn’t have me!
