While it is jarring, and sometimes seems unjust, or strange, this
transition we call dying and death is a constant in the mortal
experience that we know almost nothing about. I am of the mind that it
is a transition and I carry with me a certainty of the continuity of
existence. While I don't exactly know what happens in these times, there
is an ongoing sense of life that reaches in my mind out far beyond the
near horizons of mortality and into the reaches of infinity. That David
has stepped beyond my view causes me the sadness that it does many of
you. I will miss him, but I won't abandon him to mortality. I will think
of him as existing within the animating life that insures existence. I
will think of him and his family with that gentle regard in spite of all
the contrary appearances on the mortal plane. David's spirit and soul
live well in my heart, among all the lovely people, who remember with me
the good times, and the healing times, that were created for so many,
including us. I have fond memories. I wish him safe travels.
