Psalm 90:10 says that the days of our years are 70 years, And if because of special mightiness they are 80 years.
May the memories of the wonderful times you shared together bring a smile and joy in your heart.

I was saddened to read of the passing of Brother Nesbitt, and my thoughts & prayers are with his family, friends & chapter brothers. While I never had the honor of meeting John, I pledge that the SigEp Patriots Project will always remember him, his life & patriotic service.

I and many others will truly miss this kind, considerate gentleman. What a privilege to have enjoyed his participation, humor, enthusiasm and mutual volunteering in my equestrian world for many decades. Teaching him and hi girls equitation skills, Foxhunting, Showing when the girls were young left many happy memories. For years he supported the Creation and execution of The Radnor Thee Day Event and importantly The Devon Horse Show and Country Fair in many rolls particularly The Hospitality Committee. He and Sandy where a perfect example of what and how the project should operate. I know he did many other kind deeds a well. Always Welcoming is one my lasting impressions. Sandy, Sharon and Julie you have my deepest sympathies. Joannah
