To my classmate and enduring friend, Phillip Jennings, Jr., my thoughts and corresponding prayer are with you and your family at the passing of your father.

A favored quotation, a hoped-for balm: "No one ever dies as long as there is someone left to remember. And when there is no one left to remember, it really won't matter, for then we'll all be together, again."
