NOTICES Thank You The family of Frank Simmons sends a heartfelt thank you to everyone who sent kind remembrances, dropped by with food, attended the services, helped with the dinner, sent love and prayers and stood with us during our time of grief. A few weeks before Frank left us, he shared the following words with us and we believe it was his intention that they also be shared with you: “Stop for awhile and dream. Look at that old tree over there, the one all grey and bare, with holes in it from the top to the bottom. The arms are still there cast ing a shadow on the stream nearby. That old tree is a keeper of the circle. It has housed the birds and beasts and watched the salmon come up to spawn in pair. It has watched the wisdom of the bear, the love of a bird feeding the young, the cun ning of a wildcat, the beauty of a newborn fawn. The cold of the winter, the heat of the sun, keep on watching until the day is done. That old tree doesn't assume that all in his circle is taken care of. That old tree talks to them and makes sure that they are because they have purpose. Like us, we have a purpose too. Some of us have different values, but our cause is the same. Some do not understand the values of others, but do we ask why ? No, we don't. Instead we assume that what is good for the bear is good also for the birds or what is good for the loving little fawn is good for the snake. Look at that boulder over there. It will tell you a few tales of wisdom, too. It has been around since the time of beginning. It used to be a big solid rock, but from being rolled around and broken apart it isn’t as strong as it used to be. If we are going to be keep ers of the circle, we need to understand that all things have a purpose culturally, traditionally and spiritually.” the USS Midway (World War II Aircraft Carrier) now a museum in San Diego, CA.
