Over the years I have come to realize it doesn't really matter what we have or what status we attain in life. What really matters is the way we treat each other while acting out our vocations God has given us so that we can be accepted into Heaven along with as many others on this earth as possible! ...

Memories Forever!

Dear Chris and Rosalie,

I think of Cynthia often and invoke her blessing on my life and work -- now mostly canine rescue, most meaningful and rewarding to care for "the least of these."
