Re: [MBZ] Funeral and kids and then some!
Forgive me for not trimming my post -- difficult to do on this old laptop. Here is the situation as I see it. We lost Marshall, and will admit that I got a little emotional. We had exchanged emails during the last months -- blatently honest -- and although I knew the end was coming, the end was still not easy. Now, we have a new situation. Three young kids who were born into what is by definition a bad situation. I suggest we honor Marshall, an educator of diverse talents, by rearing a new generation, three recent additons to OkieLand with dozens of step-grandparents (all of whom smell slightly of #2 diesel and Mobil 1). I loved Marshall (in a non-gay sort of way) and can think of no better legacy to him than channeling our efforts to the next generation. Marshall was by no means a shallow man -- he understood that we are all temporal and it is the next generation that has to carry on, and they have to be trained to change their fuses. Money diverted to cancer research is important. By gene pool, I will most likely die of that. But anything we can contribute there is a drop in the bucket, while real dollars can change some young lives who have endured more already than I have in 5+ decades (and my life has been sort of ugly at times).
