Way over yonder is a place that I know
where I can find shelter from hunger and cold.

Mrs B, I never had the pleasure of meeting you and Mr. B
It is apparent that you both are very special people.

I would like to share a few words with you.

What the C word cannot do!
It cannot cripple Love
It cannot shatter hope
It cannot corrode faith
It cannot destroy peace
It cannot kill friendship
It cannot surpress memories
It cannot silence courage
It cannot invade the soul
It cannot steal eternal life
And it will not Conquer the spirit.

Somewhere over the rainbow the skies will be blue.

Peace be with you both.

[AnyTing]

Prayers and much love to John and Amy.

To Mr. and Mrs. B...though I don't know you personally, I'm comforted knowing you have so many good friends even if fate doesn’t turn out to be one of them. And I want to thank you for the gift of perspective and reminding us all about what it is truly important in life.

Peace.

St. Johnian

It’s not about yesterday or tomorrow,
It’s about today, for come what may –
Sun, rain, or hurricane –
We’ve only time for smiles, none for sorrow

[Barbara]

Here is my favorite poem. It reminds me so much of John. So John, this is for you.

Anyway

People are often unreasonable,
Illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind,
People may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful,
You will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank,
People may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building,
Someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness,
They may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today,
People will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have,
And it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis,
It is between you and God;
It never was between you and them anyway.
