An Ode: In memory of George Floyd
today at 1:10 pm
Where peacefully we the people protest
The ground is firm and free and blessed;
For so the blood of heroes dead
Has paved the way for us ahead.

I’m Jerry Partacz, happily married to my wife Julie for over 40 years. I have four children and eleven grandchildren. I’m enjoying retirement after 38 years of teaching. I now have an opportunity to share my thoughts on many things. I’m an incurable optimist. I also love to solve crossword puzzles and to write light verse. I love to read, to garden, to play the piano, to collect stamps and coins, and to watch “Curb Your Enthusiasm”.
