Richard L. Evans
Parents sometimes simply don't have enough hands and time and attention to do all that is urgent.

It is a great moment in life when a father sees a son grow taller than he or reach farther.
Richard L. Evans

Richard L. Evans
There are few of us but who have been touched somehow by death. Some may not have been touched closely by it nor yet have kept vigil with it, but somewhere along our lives, most of us are sorely bereft of someone near and deeply cherished - and all of us will some day meet it face to face.
Richard L. Evans
