The following is my response to a FB community page asking about a homeless man's well-being during a cold snap in early January 2018 in New England. Well, one idea led to the next and hopefully we will get an update that 'David M' is doing well enough. He's really proven to be an interesting catalyst for everyone to put a face on the homeless, elderly, mental illness challenge and what community responses are available and the least disruptive. 

Thanks for this meaningful discussion and basic human concern.

Having a FB Memory Page for a Loved One is a rather new way to mark the transition of  a person from this earthly realm while keeping a sense of the social ties that enriched their life. Such is the case regarding the passing of our 16-year-old son Kaelan Alexander Palmer Paton of Sharon CT in June of 2009, 8 years ago. He would have been 25 on January 6th, 2018 (having been born 1-6-93 shortly after midnight.)

I recount many events and ideas on his memorial facebook page with a few hundred people on it, hoping to keep the inspiration of his life and final acts of courage and trying to save

Hi All, 

I have found more ways to keep busy than planned helping some folks out in the Berkshires. Tip: If watching kids in a library Make Sure you alert the librarian and others that you'd like their help keeping any child from wandering out by his or herself in search of anyone or even wanting to check outside on someone or something in a car, etc. Yes, this kind of thing Does happen even in the modern world. Who votes for a 'kid-proof' gate when reasonable? I guess I will put out the request.

 Everybuddy would love to hear their family singing songs as they did in Christmases past..and I happen to be able to do that with the likes of Sandy and Caroline Paton's music being available on youtube. I feel lucky when I remember to slow down long enough to tune in. I was living at Folk-Legacy when the album (now CD and digital) Twas On A Night Like This was being recorded there. I will reflect on those times another time since it's getting late.

Hope everyone had a BeYouToFull December to Remember...(and a couple more days to fill in so get going if you've slept through the most of it.)
