I second the comments of Tom Ramsey – “…you are making a difference in people’s lives.” People you don’t even know.

I am one of those. I was a student of your husband’s many moons ago at Concordia. I was a singer – I am a singer. And while my time there was short (just 3 semesters), it was huge. Forming. Developing. Influencing. Connecing with some who now are my dearest friends. And so I stay connected – with Seward, with the music department (especially my good friend Ragoo), with Dr. Ore’s website, and thereby with you.

Your walk is enlightening. Your courage is inspiring. And while we have never met, we are very close, you and me.

Wishing you and your family a glorious CHRISTmas-time!

Ken Jordan
Los Alamitos, CA

Snow predicted here for the 3rd weekend in a row and Okies are nothing if not afraid of getting out in a little snow. But, I love ’em!

I remember vividly CHRISTmases at St. John. I used to tease David Mannigel that our children’s CHRISTmas Eve service was as complicated as the Normandy Invasion…and Ike only had to do that one once and we did one every year. He would laugh that distinctive laugh of his.

I also remember vividly all the special music you had and how hard your worked with various choirs, instrumentalists and such to see to it that the message of the Christ child came through loudly and clearly.

So…Merry CHRISTmas, dear friends…you made and are making a difference in people’s lives…Jesus loves you…and so do I!…Tom

I don’t remember seeing that picture of you before – I asked the girls who that girl was they said Janna – you (in the conversation this was me) – I am amazed at how you look like me, my children, my sister – such a strong X chromosome!

Happy Peaceful Holidays!

Heidi
