Sorry to hear of Mr. Millet's passing. I would like to offer my sincere condolences to his family. Jeremiah 29:11, 12 assures us God is thinking thoughts of peace towards us, to give us a future and a hope. And, that if we come and pray to Him, He will listen to us. In the days to come may you find comfort in that hope.

Ed was always a pleasure to be around--he could be funny, contemplative, inquisitive within two minutes. I can't recall him being angry. I missed him when he moved from Illinois to Seattle a few years ago.
