Dear Departed Ones

This list will be incomplete, I'm sure, for a while. In some ways, it will never be complete...there will always be someone else who will be added some day, whether soon, or far in the future.

But there are a few of those who have left this world who continue to touch our lives, even after they are no longer with us.

Some of the writings here were done at the time of their death. Others, in the time since then. Most are the departed with whom I actually shared life. A few others are those who I didn't know, but who's life touched me beyond what may be considered typical.
