Joyce,
I want to express the deep sadness I experienced when you emailed me about Kirk's passing. I was floored. Until I found him that day a number of years ago (you all were living in Hormel at the time) and I said to you on the telephone, "I am a voice out of Kirk's past...I hope he remembers me". Of course he did and we had a many years of telephone conversations that covered the lost time. Even though I had not seen him since 1952 it was like we didn't skip a beat as we brought each other up on 40 odd years of our lives. I will miss him. I just wish that we did not have the distance divide that kept us from a face to face meeting. He was my good friend back then and he always will be. Joyce, I wish you and the family the best. If there is anything that I can do...please call me.
Love,
Reuben and Edna Porter

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

They are out of town this week but wanted to let you know that you are in their thoughts. My mom's email address is [email protected] , she was hoping if you got the chance you could email her your phone number or address so they could contact you personally. You are in our thoughts.
