During my need to check my late brother's stuff after his passing, I found the following words he had

copied on to a piece of scrap paper - attributed to one "Etiennce de Grellet".  They are worth our time

and I quote them here..

"I expect to pass through this world but once;  any good thing therefore that I can do, or any kindness

that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now.  Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not

pass this way again."

I think my brother did his best to adhere to these words and that comforts me now.
