I was shocked to hear about Linda's passing. I had not talked to her since I retired. She was a beautiful person and always had a big smile for everyone. Teddy, you were the light of her life! She and I spent many hours through the years comparing notes on our sons and she was always so proud of you. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Warm Summer Sun

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.
