From Marie Spoken at his funeral on 02/18/2012

At times like this we tend to reflect on life and in particular our own life realizing once again that it is finite and we never know how many hours, days or years we may have left.Make the most of each day and each moment. It is so easy to let them slip away without even realizing it. If you want to grab for the brass ring better go for it now while you have the chance because you don’t know when the ride will be over but it will be over and then it will be too late.
