"I HAVE A DREAM ..." (IN MEMORY)

"I am not interested in power for power's sake,
but I'm interested in power that is moral,
that is right and that is good."

A man should do his job so well
that the living, the dead, and the unborn
could do it no better."

Always most thoughtful, dear Bren. I'm honored to have you as a dear friend. I'm on my way over ...

As I know you are, dear Beckie, I'm proud to live in this beautiful Country, remembering those who have walked a long, hard road, leaving huge footprints.

Thank you, dear Frances ... Indeed we are living in historic times; still young with much to learn.
