Jeff,
I just got back from a magical Mardi Gras. Despite weather predictions it was a beautiful sunny and warm day, just like I knew it would be. Of course everyone talked about you, and our friend Harry who died earlier this last year too. We all miss you. But you were there with us.
Love, Bennie

It is Christmas and I can't help but think of you. It was around this time of the year that we first lived in New Orleans. It was one of the coldest winters I have ever spent-the wind wipping through the old French doors and courtyards. But we were surrounded by wonderful friends. We all still love you. See you in my dreams.
Bennie

Jeff,
Although I've only known you for 11 months, each minute I've spent with you made a day's impact since you have this way of filling my plate with the goodness of your being. Now that you are up there enhancing the menu selections in God's kitchen, I will pray for the spiritual guidance to prepare me for my ultimate review, when I will once again be blessed with the privilege of sharing your culinary dreams. Your life has made a wave that's moved the world, and the ripples will...

Your presence here will always be missed. Your spirit lives on in all of the lives you blessed in your special, gentle and compassionate way.
