These are great.

Meryl, I love the Gordon MacRae comparison.  I can see it in the pictures.

Read a beautiful poem today, reminded me of our beloved Rich:

I will not die an unlived life.
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid,
more accessible,
to loosen my heart
until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance;
to live so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom
and that which came to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit.


     "Fully Alive"
      Dawna Markova
Dawn is coming,
Open your eyes...

Yes, Mandy, that fits Rich to a Tee!!

Today I thought of Rich looking down on me living my life and blessing me with a positive thought and a "You go, girl!" like he did in life.  :)

I've started a new thread, meant for expressions of love for our friend Rich.  We'll leave this thread for grieving, and use the new one for celebration, reflection, and other thoughts.

Please feel free to post photos, songs, lyrics, youtubes, thoughts about Rich.

Yes, me too. Also there is still that blasted Linked In reminder.

Maybe it's good though?  A reminder to remember him will be better as time passes.
