Thank you for sharing such a wonderful man with me. He and Hazel were such wonderful influences in my childhood. I am so blessed to have had such wonderful role models of love and life. Ted and Hazel exemplified true love. Winchester and Annisquam will never be the same without their party animal!

Mr. V will be so very missed.

I Did Not Die

Do not stand at my grave and forever weep.
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn’s rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush.
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and forever cry.
I am not there. I did not die.
