To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.—Ralph Waldo Emerson With fond childhood memories, I join you in celebrating your father's "successful" life. He had so much to be proud of! May the sadness you feel during these difficult days soon be replaced with joyous moments remembered. You will remain in my thoughts… Kris Frankfort, IL US
