JEFFREY RIESS
FISHER
APR. 6, 1963
MAR. 30, 1999
Back of stone:
To laugh often and love much
To win the respect of intelligent
persons and the respect of children;
To earn the approbation of honest
critics and to endure the betrayal of
false friends. To appreciate beauty; To
find the best in others; To give of
one's self; To leave the world a bit
better, whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch, or a redeemed social
condition; To have played and laughed
with enthusiasm and sung with
exultation; To know that even one life
has breathed easier because you
have lived - Jeff, you have succeeded.
RALPH WALDO EMERSON
Note: There is a laser photo of the deceased on the front of the stone.
