I appreciate both yours and T’wit’s dedication to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, 8mm.

Whenever I saw T’wit’s name, I thought of the biblical sparrow.

T'wit loved birds, had feeders all around his house, would spend lots of time just watching, sometimes taking pictures. Yes, the biblical sparrow is poignant.

T'wit's recent favorite biblical phrase was the Latin, "Pray for him" and now it applies to T'wit.

Ora pro eo.

His piercing truth, passion for the vulnerable and way with words
will be greatly missed.

I'm am truly sorry our pathes never crossed, for someone who was willing to get justice for those who cannot fight for themselves, their battle is truly noble and just.

T'wit, when you meet up with Terry, give her a huge hug from all of us!

We lost a great friend. Between the posts and the PMs, I feel as if I met T’wit in person.

My prayers are going up for his family and you - a close friend!

A Friend

A friend is like a shade tree
Beside a summer way.
A friend is like the sunshine
That makes a perfect day.

A friend is like a flower
That’s worn close to the heart.

A friend is like a treasure
With which one will not part.

We learned so much from T’wit about Terri Schiavo - he had the facts on everything, between his memory and the sources he gave us.

I had this in my personal files, for instance, which T’wit posted:

“from T’wit - Terri and 14th amendment:
