Although I was not aware of what was going on, it was a little disconcerting in the last couple of years when on occasional weekends, no Parade Magazine was among the inserts in the Sunday papers.
That should have been a signal—that the popular supplement was headed for extinction. Then those absences seemed to come with intermittent frequency. Ultimately, the hammer fell late last fall when Parade Magazine disappeared from Sunday circulation altogether. It was no longer part of my weekend life as it had been for years.
Parade remains via the Internet, but that is not for this reader.
