I read recently that in Bhutan the translation for "thank you" is "thank you beyond the sky and the earth." I guess that pretty much sums up how I feel to all of you as I have been grappling through this, um, "life transition." All of your words I have read multiple times (as have my family), and the comfort you have offered is beyond description. Additionally, I know that many of you contributed to the John Roberts Memorial Fund....I have no way of knowing who has contributed, but I just want to extend my thanks also to you. I would love to write you all individual thank-you notes (and my mother would probably make me if I had access to that info! :-) ), but sadly cannot. Please know that your contributions have been significant, and while I would love to take it all and go on a 'round the world adventure, what it's REALLY going to do is allow me to stay in our house, hopefully until I can get the mortgage paid off. No small thing! Anyway, pathetic and small as this attempt at a thank you is, I hope you read it, and know that I am grateful beyond words, beyond the sky and earth.
much love,
pam roberts

Just heard about the fund...perhaps where to send donations could be reported here.

Thanks,
