Thanks, George.

Ring Out, Wild Bells
Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light;
The year is dying in the night;
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
Ring out the grief that saps the mind,
For those that here we see no more,
Ring out the feud of rich and poor,
Ring in redress to all mankind.
Ring out a slowly dying cause,
And ancient forms of party strife;
Ring in the nobler modes of life,
With sweeter manners, purer laws.
Ring out the want, the care the sin,
The faithless coldness of the times;
Ring out, ring out my mournful rhymes,
But ring the fuller minstrel in.
Ring out false pride in place and blood,
The civic slander and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and right,
Ring in the common love of good.
Ring out old shapes of foul disease,
Ring out the narrowing lust of gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of old,
Ring in the thousand years of peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free,
The larger heart, the kindlier hand;
Ring out the darkness of the land,
Ring in the Christ that is to be.
Alfred, Lord Tennyson
This is sad news indeed
I'm in shock, having just heard about this. However, one of my very first thoughts was that now she and Joe get to meet up, and what a fine time that will be. Dev will probably be there too.
Just think of the group that awaits us all on the other side.
RC, condolences to you and all of your family and friends. We pirates may stray hither and yon but in the end, we know our home ship.

Amen. We are parted but for a while, not forever.

Thank you Dot, I take comfort in your words, it well be one heck of a party when we all get there.

"I'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places
That this heart of mine embraces all day through
In that small café, the park across the way
The children's carousel, the chestnut trees, the wishing well
I'll be seeing you in every lovely summer's day
In everything that's light and gay
I'll always think of you that way
I'll find you in the mornin' sun
And when the night is new
I'll be looking at the moon
But I'll be seeing you"
Gone but never fogotten my dear Linnea, you are everywhere, you are in my heart.
I'll Be Seeing You by Billy Holiday, I know Linn liked her.

I fly a starship
Across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I'll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
Again
and again
and again
and again
and again
and again
Did you ever stop to think, and then forget to start again?

I'm glad to see that they've posted this on the C2C site, that shows class. Linnea has played a huge role in providing a place for Coast fans, and for keeping us all in line. Noory especially owes her a great debt of gratitude.
