    Thanks, you two. I needed that. Pray for my folks this week, as my Mom has several tests related to memory loss. Wednesday afternoon at 4 p.m. in the ‘consultation’ with the family.

  2. Jane Avery says:

    I liked the script and the music, but these 61-year-old-ears just couldn’t understand the electronic voice quoting the scripture. Peace!

  3. Mr. Sir says:

    That is bizarrely moving.

  4. Marilyn Long says:

    I’m in tears.

    How beautiful, real, insightful, creative, moving, hopeful!

    Miss you. How blessed the Normans will be to be rejoined with you and your God-glorifying talents!

    Thanks for sharing and may God continue to comfort you.

  5. Steve Rine says:

    Agree w/ Mr. Sir.

    Also agree w/ Jane Avery (although I’m not 61) – the electronic voice was fuzzy. But the complete piece was moving nonetheless – it elicited tears from my wife (BEFORE we went back & read the text.)

    Electronic voice sounds very Steve-Scott-ish, by the way.

    Thank you.

    Thanks so much – perfect way to begin my Good Friday. Penny

    Wow. Thanks.

    Some years ago, I went to vist an aunt in a nursing home. She was very pleasant but didn’t really know who I was. “Patrick’s daughter,” I told her. That was my father, her sister. She seemed to get that. Then she said her sister Mary dropped by the other day – Mary had died some years before. But here’s the thing – my aunt seemed to realize that. She said, “Mary dropped by,” then added in wonderment, “I didn’t know you could do that…” Not too long after that, my aunt died.
