Nothing to do with jewelry- respect for the heroic

You may never have heard of Tom DeBaggio.  He was an herb grower and Alzheimer's patient who died on 21 Feb 2011.  When he was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's, he determined he would record what the disease was like, not unlike a spaceman reporting back to Earth during his one-way voyage to the sun.  His courage was breathtaking and a model of achievment through insurmountable odds.  Please pray for his family as well.  Read his obituary in The Economist here:  http://www.economist.com/node/18275908?story_id=18275908&CFID=158122845&CFTOKEN=18507729
