Wonderful and Lovely Woman
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, LOVELY MARIANNE!!
Though we have never met, you have profoundly impacted my life. I first read about you through one of Dan's columns in 1991. He called you The Lovely Marianne and wrote about your virtues, including great patience with him, and your loveliness in all regards. I have read many of Dan's columns and he always treated you with the utmost honor and respect. This, of course, reflected upon his character, but reflected in greater measure upon you, your character and your dignity through life.
I quickly came to realize that his name for you was a true characterization of you, Lovely Marianne!
Through the life that you live and that Dan records, I learned a far greater appreciation of women. I have been married almost 11 years now, and from the first I have always referred to my wife as The Lovely Tuuli.
You have changed my life for the better, and I am so happy that you were born and that you live life to the fullest!
May this next year of your life be filled with a new sense of God the Father's love, care and concern for you.
Abundant GRACE to you,
Clif Heeney
Thanks to all,
and especially to you, Cliff. Sorry for taking so long to answer. Dan and I have been traveling. It was a wonderful birthday.
Marianne
