I have called Thee O Lord from the dwelling place of my soul deep in the mystic cavern of my heart. I pray not for myself but for this kind and gentle spirityou have allowed to share my life for nearly thirty years. I cannot begin to recount the blessings of that life, so full of the beauty of flowers and love for the earth, reverence for its manifold creaturesand the sheer delight of Thy miraculous creation and its wonders we have experienced, the special Grace that has allowed us, for a time, to tread the path together, enriching all experience, enhancing all our fragrant memories.
