Dear Ann & Emily, -

I was recently visiting
the old neighborhood and
heard that your Dad had passed, -
My thoughts & prayers are with you.

The following poem -
is a warm reflection of how
my family remembers him.

He was a blessing in our lives, -
May God bless him now & always.

SUCCESSS

To laugh often and much

To win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;

To earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;

To appreciate beauty,
to find the best in others;

To leave the world a bit better,
whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch or a
redeemed social condition;

To know even one life has breathed
easier because you have lived.

That is to have succeeded.

Mr. Camara,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army during WW II-especially as a Prisonoer of War-God knows what hardships you had to endure. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
