Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace and gratitude.
I will miss Troy. He could make me laugh like I rarely ever do. He had a generosity of spirit that is truely rare. It's odd, but even after many years, I look around my house at a surprising number of gifts from Troy ... Mustang float coats, Makita drill, a Coleman stove from the very first time we ever met. Very functional things. It was through Troy that I first learned to sail. Thanks Troy. Love, Dave Albert - Juneau Alaska

I finally take my leave. I have gained my vacation. Please let me go. I bow down to all of you in reverence and bid adieu. I returned the keys to the door of the house and do not demand any claim to it. I only ask from all of you your love and best wishes. I have been your neighbor for so long: I received more than I gave. The night has ended and the dawn is here. The little lamp in the corner is now extinguished. The call has come for my journey – so I am off and bid adieu.
