Hello all!
Maud forwarded the message to the ferry I work on. We think of
Cj almost daily and the new puppy we received a week ago will be fostred and
trained in his spirit and using the knowledge he shared so
lawlishly.
I came home from work this morning for a two week leave. Under
no circumstances will I continue to work for longer than until Januari 14. I
have collected many ideas to try to realize next year and the work on the
ferry drains me of too much energy. I have to quit it. Perhaps I can get an
early retirement pension due to the heart surgery I had two years ago. I can
always try to pretend being with one foot in the grave and the other one on a
banana peel  ))
This week I will try to write something about our new
puppy for our website, its about time since I have been rather sad and quiet
since Cj left us. Now we have again got Sunshine into the house, the puppies
name is just that - Sunshine!
You will hear from me soon!
Best!

While
so many of us are confined by the limits of our own imaginations, CJ
challenged us to think beyond those limitations. He prized
learning and shared his best with us; his skills, his thoughts, his humor, and
his vast knowledge. CJ was a man who was not bound by the
trappings of tradition and managed to reach peoples hearts in unique and
personal ways. His thirst for new challenges led him down
many paths and on untold adventures while any willing participants could not
help but imbibe some newfound tidbit of knowledge. Those of
us who were fortunate enough to endeavor in some aspect of CJs teachings will
be forever changed by the man who has left us but will never be
forgotten.
CJs
wife, Katharine, his children, Lisa, Katharine and James, and his
grandchildren Holly and Andrew invite you to join them in a time of virtual
remembrance on Thursday, October 1st at 4:00 pm eastern
time. Wherever you may be, please pause for a spell and
join us in remembering CJ in your own way. We welcome your
thoughts and your stories and hope that you will be able to share some of them
with us as we gather a living tribute to the man we will miss so
dearly.
