Mary Elizabeth Brian

Mary Elizabeth Brian Educator Emeritus 1910-2009 Shortened her 100th trip around the Sun on October 27, 2009 and died peacefully following a life as a wife, a mother and benefactress to those she educated. She enjoyed a life she hoped to repeat "time and again" and hoped to see "the people she loved just as they were." Mary Elizabeth received a poem for posterity on her birthday on March 16,2009. (no copyrights (c) are reserved personally for Mary Elizabeth Brian/family members) The Recoil Theory of Life After Death The "real world" is made, of time and matter, And they say time can never, destroy the latter, Now bangs can cause, opposing forces to react, And recoil to reverse time; with its matter intact, So let's not think of life, as a road that's "one way", For life's a "round trip" and it's much better this way! For the source of a bang, needs no one to pray, Just give it some thanks, for the chances to play, For the chances to love, and to make others happy, And for chances to take losses, that set others free, For these chances we choose, may return and replay, And "deja vu" and repeat, just like "plays of the day"! Mary Elizabeth wondered if people believed in the "recoil theory" might they then better their lives by "giving to others the very same choices they themselves wanted"? and "by not taking from others either by force or by trick"? For might not their "noble times" arid their ''times of the wrong" repeat themselves "over and over again just like a pendulum on a clock?" Mary cherished her "mixed marriage" and believed that love for each other was more important than religious differences. Mary wished that instead of a funeral that their family and friends contribute to an institute of higher. learning of their own choice.
