Dear Sandy and family
I had this in my file at home and felt it was very appropriate--it is about greatness.And about how one person can change the course of history.
I hope you can find comfort from it.

You are life's prayer of becoming and its answer. The first light at the dawn of eternity, drawn from the ether, so that you might know your own depth, discover new heights, and revel in seas of blessed emotion.

A pioneer into illusion, an adventurer into the unknown, and a lifter of veils. Courageous, heroic, and exalted by legions in the unseen.

To give beyond reason, to care beyond hope, to love without limit; to reach, stretch, and dream, in spite of your fears. These are the hallmarks of divinity - traits of the immortal - your badges of honor. May you wear them with a pride as great as the immeasurable pride we feel for you.

Your light has illuminated darkened paths, your gaze has lifted broken spirits, and already your life has changed the course of history.
It is this life we celebrate and we bow to Greatness-you changed so many lives in a postive way.
