> Jeff's dad Joe L. Watson passed Thursday Nov.2 at 1:35 pm in the  
> Vitas Hospice in the Forum. He passed very peacefully minutes after  
> the Hospice Chaplain pronounced "I command thy Spirit to God."
>
> The chaplain asked us to to tell Joe how much he meant to us and to  
> share a few stories of how much Joe had helped people. Then he  
> asked us to sing to him "This is my story, this is my song..." and  
> we sang a few lines of an Order:Eucumenical song, (to the tune of  
> Shenandoah): "At the Center Tranquil" ..."Universe,  
> Illumination, ...Everywhere is found life's meaning, and I, I find  
> the way to the center tranquil"... Pulsing exhileration, everything  
> becomes a blessing, embraced by joy, a dance of rapture, and I, I  
> am the stillness at the center, tranquil... Gloriously, condemned  
> to die, life is new, a great resurgence, and I, I am forever at the  
> center tranquil"
>
> The Memorial service will be held over Thanksgiving weekend.
>
> Thank you for all your prayers and support,
> Debra, Jeff, Aleksa & Michael
