I am going to stay dark here on my blog for one more day in honor of my friend, Joseph, who died on Monday. His death was unexpected and tragic; however, I believe that he is at last at peace.
Here is a lovely picture of Joseph that characterizes his spirit. This was supplied by Patricia Neal Jensen, a mutual church friend, at her wedding.
