PETER JOSEPH MACINTYRE
The once “Fabulous Four” raise a toast to our friend; Peter Joseph (P.J.) MacIntyre who passed away Dec 7, 2009
We cannot say, we will not say
That he is dead. He is just “away”.
With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand,
He has wandered into an unknown land
And left us dreaming how very fair
It must be, since he lingers there
Think of him faring on, as dear
In love ‘There’, as he was in love ‘Here’
Think of him still as the same. We say,
“He is not dead—he is just away.”
- James Whitcomb Riley
“On the death of a dear friend: consider the task of double living that has been placed upon us; from this moment on, we are left to fulfill the promise of our friends’ life, as well as our own, to the world”
-Henry David Thoreau
Much love; Jim MacIntyre, Sheila Lute-Gaslard, Tracy Vienneau
