To all the girls who are in a hurry to have a boyfriend or get married, a piece of Biblical advice: “Ruth patiently waited for her mate Boaz.” While you are waiting on YOUR Boaz, don’t settle for any of his relatives: Broke-az, Po-az, Lyin-az, Cheatin-az, Dumb-az, Drunk-az, Cheap-az, Lockedup-az, Goodfornothingaz, Lazyaz and especially his third cousin Beatinyouaz. Wait on your Boaz and make sure he respects Yoaz!
“swiped from a friend” I wish I knew who wrote this! It’s the best advice ever!
Just got home from Mr Hegg's funeral. Lots of people, lots of great music and memories. When I sat down Ashley Allen was playing a video of the Augie Jazz Fest featuring Andrew Ellsworth on Sax and Kevin Logan on trumpet. Too bad they stopped the video before the solos started! Then a video of the 1997 Rose Bowl appearance, 2001 Portland Rose Festival appearance...those were some of his finest moments (and my favorite memories, too!). Abby, there were pictures from Fiddler on the Roof. Not this one, but I like it...

There was a brass quintet doing the music. I sat until everyone left the sanctuary so I could hear all the music. The service ended with Symphony #9 "From the New World" Dvorak. Thought they might play Going Home...remember that show, Cari?
Many band directors were there. Amanda and Jenny, Pam Sweet, Jessie Miller (he was a pallbearer, along with Bob Kramer!). Dan Iverson, who had Denny for DSU band director. Lots more people.....the church was full.
It was a great tribute to a great man. Glad you all had a chance to learn from him.
Love
Mom
Phillipians 4:Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

"Going Home", set to the music of Dvorak's 9th Symphony, third movement.
Going home, going home, I'm just going home. Quiet-like, slip away- I'll be going home. It's not far, just close by; Jesus is the Door; Work all done, laid aside, Fear and grief no more. Friends are there, waiting now. He is waiting, too. See His smile! See His hand! He will lead me through.
Morning Star lights the way; Restless dream all done; Shadows gone, break of day, Life has just begun. Every tear wiped away, Pain and sickness gone; Wide awake there with Him! Peace goes on and on! Going home, going home, I'll be going home. See the Light! See the Sun! I'm just going home.
