I thank you for being such a pioneer for the rest of us. Now, it is our turn to take the preverbial torch and continue what you have accomplished in your many years on Earth. You will be forever missed.

I now try to follow the path you courageously forged. It’s easy to follow a path someone else has already made, but you’re the one who initially bent the grass and branches down for the rest of us. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
