May God bless you and your...
To the Jackson family:
Richard and I have been friends and neighbors for years. I came to know a hardy man who was soft-spoken, yet strong. Our mutual interest in gardening led us into many delightful conversations and trade-outs—hot habaneras for sausage, as an example. He was a good friend and I miss him very much. I offer my heartfelt condolences to you all, and I think Richard would be grateful that you have chosen to celebrate his life rather than mourn his death.
