"\"Journey, The journeys we take, be they short or long, make us who we are, weak of strong. So heed the call when it whispers in your heart, take the winding pathway, your journey to embark. Embrace, with excitement, all that it may be. Dance the trail with wonder of the glories you may see. Temptation to walk the old tracks will flit through your mind, but you are the generation of beauty, make your own, take your time. Do not be left behind as you fear to take the first step. One foot in front of the other, a life of no regrets.\" Love you all so much ? "
In loving memory of
David Eberle
