Priscilla and family,
>From all over the world, you can hear Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
echoing thank you, thank you,  Muddy boots, dirty hands, jacket or suit - he
lived each day as a gift and in so doing turned his life into a gift to all
of us.

Thanks Rodney and to his family for sharing.

A story:
In 1984, in New Delhi at the International Exposition for Rural Development
(IERD), we sent teams out to places across  India for visits to exceptional
examples of sustainable development.  Rodney's team was traveling by train,
of course. They had a great 3 day sight visit, Their troubles arose when
returning.  They missed their  train. (All 20 people in first class seats.)
Rodney's solution was simple.  He waltzed into the Station Master's office,
presented him with his Santa Fe Railroad business card.  The next train
bound for New Delhi, 20 first class passengers were booted off and our
delegates returned on time for the plenary and reporting.

*Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough,
and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to
clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger
into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today,
and creates a vision for tomorrow*.
