Song of Stars

It has been a long week. It has been a week of passings. Terry Schiavo is with God and the bitter battle is finally over. She is whole again and at peace. It also saw the death of Pope John Paul II. He was an incredible man and I can't think of anyone who has had such an impact on this world. He will leave big shoes for the next Pope to fill. It also saw the death of a voice from my past with DJ Dr. Don Rose. Most remember him for his humor and the fun you had listening to him. The two shows I remember most though are the ones he did after the Jonestown tragedy caused by Jim Jones and the day after the murder of San Francisco Mayor George Moscone and Harvey Milk. He brought such comfort on those days to his listeners who were numb with shock. All three of them are with God now as is my Dad.

I worked all week on this picture because I wanted something special in their memory. I also will be using it to remind my young nephew what a special young man he is. He suffers from Apsergers and sometimes like now he just doesn't realize how much he is loved and how special he is.
