I just want, no I need to publicly state on this day, when we lay his body to rest, when the memory of his place on this earth begins to fade, that Richard Edwards was a great man. Now I know that it is human nature to talk about the departed...

Captured Reluctance
Captured Reluctance From first breath until last, we chase it every day. We beg, we cry, and even try and buy. We chase it with all of our being, this secret; the essence of life.
