HOW COULD I FORGET TO ADD THAT I WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO BE YOUR AUNT CEIL AND HOW LUCKY CAN COUSINS BE TO HAVE HAD EACH OTHER at that time.......MAY GOD TAKE SPECIAL CARE OF YOU. COUSINS SPRATT'S

I enjoyed all our chats about philosophy, history and books. Especially about Portsmouth. Just last fall, we laughed about the debacle at Jenness Beach when a beached 4,000 pound minke whale slipped out of the dumpster they were trying to put it in for transportation to be studied! See, we went on the most loveliest whale watch one day. Mark, Linda, Duane and I. As the whales breached, and the sun shined, we shared a beautiful picnic. It was a day, I'll never forget. The mystery of the sea and the wonder of nature had never been more appreciated. Mark was so smart, so kind, such a loving family man. I'm so sad that he is gone, but I know he will make sure he lets us know that he is around everyone, especially Linda, all the time. To Linda, the kids, their families and all his friends, I'm deeply sorry for your profound loss.
