Governor Tom Wolf announced on Monday, 3/16, that all Fine Wine and Good Spirits stores in the state of Pennsylvania will close at 9 p.m. Tuesday, March 17th. Stores in Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Montgomery counties were already set to close by 9 p.m. Monday, 3/16. All state liquor stores and licensee service centers will remain closed until further notice. Also, online sales at www.FineWineAndGoodSpirits.com were halted at 5 p.m. Monday, 3/16. You can still purchase alcohol (wine and beer) at many grocery stores and supermarkets that have licenses to sell it. Many of those include Weis, ACME, Whole Foods, the Fresh Grocer, Wegmanâ€™s and GIANT. Grocery stores are deemed essential businesses and will remain open.

If you have a problem with drinking, there are many resources available to help. If you are a heavy drinker and decide to stop drinking abruptly, you may need to seek medical help as detox can become dangerous.

Find a treatment center and/or funding for treatment PA Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs or call 1-800-662-HELP (4357)

Find an AA meeting or information in Southeastern Pennsylvania or call (215) 923-7900

The viewing and funeral for slain Philadelphia Police Cpl. James O'Connor has been postponed indefinitely. There was to be a viewing on Thursday night and funeral Friday at the Cathedral Basilica.

He was married with two grown children. His son is a Philadelphia police officer and his daughter is an active duty Air Force member. You can donate to the Corporal James R.
