Having known Joe and Mary Ellen for nearly forty years, and having attended school with all their children, I am genuinely saddened by this enormous loss. He was a kind and altruistic soul, one who helped me above and beyond during the years I worked at WGEN. I and others in the community are better for having him in our lives, and his presence will be irreplaceable.
May his memory be eternal.
Brian Lindell
I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground.
So it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind:
Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely. Crowned
With lilies and with laurel they go; but I am not resigned.
Lovers and thinkers, into the earth with you.
Be one with the dull, the indiscriminate dust.
A fragment of what you felt, of what you knew,
A formula, a phrase remains,—but the best is lost.
The answers quick and keen, the honest look, the laughter, the love,—
They are gone. They are gone to feed the roses. Elegant and curled
Is the blossom. Fragrant is the blossom. I know. But I do not approve.
More precious was the light in your eyes than all the roses in the world.
Down, down, down into the darkness of the grave
Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind;
Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave.
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.
―Edna St. Vincent Millay, “Dirge Without Music”
