Well spoken, Rick. I, too, have been reluctant to admit my lack of familiarity with formal prayer when everyone is offering their prayers for Pat and I wanted so much to add my energies to the rest. Call it what you will, I've been giving all the power of my positive thoughts and trust this effort to help in some way that I may never understand.

The news this morning is encouraging. Let us continue to invest all the emotional currency we possess in this community endeavor. It isn't over yet.

Sandy
