Twelve years of pleated plaid and knee socks and certain aspects still elude ME. Especially given that my father does Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanna and burns kadish candles for his parents in the spring.

When Rich and I got together, he was a pagan. He returned to the Catholic Church a couple of years ago, so the priest at his memorial service was not simply the choice of his family.

Spiritual fulfillment is where one finds it - and there is comfort in the familiar.
