But this is your story so a cross is cool. And take as much time as you need. Personally as soon as I figure something out I move on.

By that time there were few in the city who remembered or had any connection to Tom who had spent his pastoral years in Dallas. My mother, my baby Ben (age 2) and I represented the family. It was going to be a very lonely ceremony in the little Catholic church he had grown up in (it looked just like your little chruches!) But coincidentally the diocese preists were meeting in near by Marshall and they all came to the funeral. There they sat on the front rows in their white vestments looking like rows of angels singing the chants of the ceremony. You can't imagine how beautiful that was!

Maybe explore how these forms may compare or contrast with the iconic symbol of "home". The cross may be the most obvious signifier of spirituality, but how do the forms of these "houses of the holy" relate their contents.<br /><br />Thanks for giving me the chance to insert some Zeppelin into this comment!klineolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10577525633756972853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-29695071370799474102012-01-20T08:00:47.987-08:002012-01-20T08:00:47.987-08:00i like the cross, it looks like it's fairly st...i like the cross, it looks like it's fairly sturdy. give it a try and see if it survives.Michèle Hastingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11346907762804197879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-41545262685574964792012-01-20T07:13:58.772-08:002012-01-20T07:13:58.772-08:00Yup, it's a sign.
