Shirley, here are some things Gilbert taught me in the time I knew him. Take time to Think - It is a source of Power. Take time to Play - It is the secret of Youth. Take time to help and enjoy friends - It is the source of Happiness. Take time to Laugh - It is the singing that helps with life's loads. You and your family are always in my prayers. Chris
