Forty Years Ago

Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated on a Memphis hotel balcony. A woman in Portland, Oregon name Karen Coman was nine months pregnant was about delivered a healthy baby girl any day. Me… I was ten years old and in the third grade.

One peacemaker leaves the planet and a few days later another peacemaker arrives on the planet. WOW!

Yes, MLK died 4/4/68...I arrived 4/8/68...our souls passed in the crossing...I certainly hope we had a nice exchange in the least and at best I would love to have brought back at least a part of his love-filled, courageous, powerful heart! Peter, I love you.
