This is a place for the people, lessons, and little acts of kindness that make Southern Illinois feel like home.
Francis has spent a lifetime collecting stories that wander a little, make you smile, and eventually find their way home.
Tell us about a veteran you care about. We will use the information only to send a personal card of thanks-not to build a marketing list.
A neighbor shows up. A class raises money. A volunteer keeps going after everybody else goes home. Those stories deserve a little daylight.

Long before there was a website, Francis Pass was talking to Southern Illinois the way he talks to anybody: one story at a time. Some were funny. Some carried more weight. Most took the scenic route before getting to the point. Pass It On gives those stories a permanent home- and gives the rest of us a place to keep adding good ones.
