In Memory of My Wife, Jennie B. Jaramillo August 16, 1911 - February 24, 1999 Her beautiful spirit is still with us in her Many original paintings and poems.The Best Is Free by JBJThank you, God, for all that's free; Countless gifts so rare, so fine, Flowing from your wealthy bounty For which we never"stand in line."The sun came up, we pushed no button, Spring is here, we filled no blank, Summer will follow, so will autumn, Yet only God we have to thank.Birds are singing, no practice needing, Buds are opening, no experts near, Soft winds blow without a reading, Geese fly north and there's no fear;Our children's love is a gift sublime For which we neither pray nor strive, Our love for them is part of Thine, For these we never"stand in line."Happy Birthday Sweetheart Prospero
