For the last twenty odd years, Fred and I have been exchanging seasons greeting via cards. Ironically, I was just reading the card that he sent to me this year, a few days ago. I will miss those Holiday messages. But, I will miss this magnificent Lifeforce even more. Yet, I will relish the memories of having known Fred in the temporary halls of the flesh. Peace be with you brother, and may the Family be comforted in the light of God's grace.
