This is indeed a beautiful tribute. We're not believers in the clichés that are usually offered in these times. These words, by W. S. Merwin, are the best that we can offer. They're from a poem called 'Separation'. Your absence has gone through me Like thread through a needle. Everything I do is stitched with its color. § He reared a fine daughter. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you. Dear Janet,

We’re so sorry to hear about your father. This is indeed a beautiful tribute. We’re not believers in the clichés that are usually offered in these times. These words, by W. S. Merwin, are the best that we can offer. They’re from a poem called ‘Separation’.

Your absence has gone through me
Like thread through a needle.
Everything I do is stitched with its color.

He reared a fine daughter.

Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.

A man that teaches himself how to make baguettes must be a treasure! :-) (Among other reasons, of course!) Janet, sorry to hear about your Dad, but what a lovely tribute.

I was trying to find your home address, and I came across this entry. It's very nice indeed. As I recall you had two sisters, but maybe I'm missing one. There's the one who is a doctor (maybe in Rifle?) and the one who was in the legislature with my dad. Sorry if I'm missing someone. Anyway, all of you will be in my thoughts. --Don Smith Janet:
