overwhelming, and what few words
of comfort I might offer would hardly
be heard. I hope reading this makes a difference
for you. Ryan made so much of a difference
for me.

In closing, I would like to tell you
that the song Elton John sang for Ryan at
his funeral was absolutely beautiful. I'm ho
ping that he makes a recording of it so
the public can buy a copy. Maybe the proceeds
of the recording could go towards Aids re
search, so that this will not happen to
another chidl like Ryan.

If I can do anything for you or
your family, feel free to write or call.
You are in my thoughts, spoken and un
spoken, which I suppose are prayers.
I wish you all much love.
