The Vigil We Keep ~*Marge Tindal*~   Oh Lord, I'm so weary Give me hope to continue and the strength to lead me on To recover my brothers and sisters who I fear may be gone They did not die forgotten In angel whispers, give them a sign As long as I have hope, Lord I will continue trying *May our thoughts and prayers be with them all* ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

They believed in what they were doing, they believed it was worth the risk, they never thought of themselves in hard times... the are the example of "everyday extraordinary." hearthugs to you Margie, prayers for all still waiting for word. Well I looked to the sky for my anthem |

So many will be scarred for so long, in the dwindling hope of any living survivors we need to pray for the rescuers. Good thought here. |

Dear Marge---One of my coworkers lost his cousin who was a fireman in NYC. I'd like to copy this for him if you don't mind. |

Marge I know this is a stressful time for all of us...the pain, the anger, the uncertainity...I know each of us could use a special angel to comfort us...remembering that old song by the group Real Life called "Send Me An Angel"....take care...James |

While our hopes of finding more survivors dwindle, may our vigil begin to include reverence to each and every innocent lost - from civilian passengers to employees to rescue workers - each and every one a hero... Thank you, Marge...  |
