In my opnion its to be remembered and to insipre others to be the best they can be. They want others to learn from thier lessons and to pass them on.

I have decided this holiday season...now 100 days till christmas uuugggg
I am going to be remembering those I have loved and lost and those who I either knew or heard about or only knew the stage name they choose.
I am going to see where in my life I can use thier lessons and improve myself and hopefuly become a better person. What better way to give a trubute to those who have some way shape or form touched my life.
I heard a few years ago that people come into your life for a reason, a season , or a lifetime. I want each of them to really be in my life for a lifetime and this is one way to do that. :D

OK back to yor regular chit chat LOL
How inspiring!! You perfectly touch on the message I wanted to share with you all.
Personally I've started my own tribute to Norman that I hope to see in a children's book--if nothing more than a book for my grandchildren. And oh yes, I have the workings for a little quilt spinning in my head, too.
