Nice News Today

I was at the funeral today of a good guy, who died without pain at age 83, surrounded by three daughters, their husbands and his six grand kids. But the good news is that there I met a woman who told me that eight years ago I had taken a group of Temple Youth Group kids out for a day sail. Her son, then in the fifth grade, was among them. Now he is on the sailing team of his university. It's nice to think that our little positive gestures can have such good results.
