March 2011 Anniversaries

[Clark]

While most of us are able to look forward to the warmer weather and uplifting of spirits springtime brings, our far southern companions are battening down for the long haul of winter.  Just so, the turning of the year brings occasions for laughter and tears, each of us building full lives of hopeful actions, living with their consequences, and perhaps finding joy. I like to think we all hope to be in the joy business, and do our best. Our hearts go out especially to Marva and Sunil for their losses this month.  Take care, all, and enjoy.
