Pat Coon: (18 Nov 2003)

I have to tell you how nice it was to have you here with us. Anela is totally smitten with you - I told her she has good taste in men! She wants to know when she can see you again. Sumitmai has often said to me that I make her feel good. I never understood what she meant until this past visit with you. You have a way about you that makes me feel good and I just want you to know how special I think you are. You have given this world so much, and yet you continue to search for more ways to give. Your music, your energy, your laugh, your intelligence and your heart are incredible. I am so blessed to have you in my life. Love- Pat
Did I ever tell you that my favorite is the color purple? Purple is also the color of Kauai. The blanket is sooo beautiful. I didn't realize that you gave it to us. Thank you. See, a part of you is here anyway!
