“Dear PoPville,
A dear friend of mine passed away completely out of the blue on August 1st. He leaves behind a beautiful young son who will never know his dad, and an extremely impressive daughter who he doted on constantly. Dan was an incredible friend and an even better father. He was a pillar of his small Alexandria community where he was known to walk large groups of kids to school every morning.”
The GoFundMe says:
“Our beloved, Dan “THE fun dad” Corker passed away suddenly on Monday, August 1.
Many have asked what they might be able to to do to help support Julie, Ashley, and Wesley during this time. In addition to surrounding his precious family with love, we have set up this fund to collect donations to help ease some of the financial burden.
To know Dan was to love Dan. We are calling on his huge village of friends, neighbors, and family to help support Julie, Ashley, and Wes during through this unfathomable loss. Julie is going to need a village in the coming months and we know she appreciates the outpouring of love she has received. Please continue to keep this precious family in your heart.”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
