We seem to all be suffering a common problem these days, WHERE DID OUR LIVES GO? Our brains seem to still be 18, but our bodies are talking a different language. Sarah Orne Jewett puts it much more eloquently than do I:

“Neither of my companions was troubled by her burden of years. I hoped in my heart that I might be like them as I lived on into age, and then smiled to think that I too was no longer very young. So we always keep the same hearts, though our outer framework fails and shows the touch of time.”

Murray Smith, KHS Teacher, Obituary

I send a thank you to KHS65 member Lois Lindley, not only for reading my blog, but for sending the obituary of one of her favorite teachers, Murray Smith.  I did not have him as a teacher, and haven't known anything about him, so his obituary is very interesting to me.  A true Kirkwood gentleman.  I'd love to post more information about any of our teachers any reader wishes to send to me.
Here is the obituary:
