De gave eerst aan anderen te denken, en jezelf voor anderen weg te schenken. Als troost blijft ons de herinnering. “In alles ben je groot geweest”
Myra Goossens
Een onwaarschijnlijk liefdevolle, warmhartige en kunstminnende vrouw dat was jij - zo eentje uit de tienduizend. Gans je carrière als leerkracht in het deeltijds kunstonderwijs heb je aan de jongste kinderen hun ongerepte creativiteit laten ontdekken en dat deed je met veel plezier en met een moederlijke bezorgdheid. Zelf was je door omstandigheden kinderloos gebleven. Pas vier maand geleden was je effectief met pensioen gesteld en hierdoor kon je jouw tweede passie voor ballet volledig beleven en daar werd met volle teugen van genoten. Ook in deze wereld werd je een vurige supporter van veel leerlingen van de balletschool en van de dansers van het Ballet Vlaanderen. Het had allemaal nog lang mogen doorgaan maar helaas, het lot heeft hier anders over beslist... Het was een enorm voorrecht om 23 jaar lang jouw partner te mogen zijn. Rust zacht lieve Myra, je was de liefde van mijn leven en mijn rots in de branding. Daniël

Wayne Dyer
Wayne Dyer inspired many people all over the world as a motivational speaker. He was an author of many books. In the early days he worked as a high school guidance counselor in Detroit and as a professor of counselor education at St. John's University in New York City. He pursued an academic career, published in journals and established a private therapy practice. His lectures at St. John's, which focused on positive thinking and motivational speaking techniques, attracted many students. A literary agent persuaded him to document his theories in his first book called Your Erroneous Zones (1976). Dyer quit his teaching job and began a publicity tour of the United States of America, doggedly pursuing bookstore appearances and media interviews ("out of the back of his station wagon", according to Michael Korda, making the best-seller lists "before book publishers even noticed what was happening", which eventually led to national television talk show appearances including The Merv Griffin Show, The Tonight Show, and The Phil Donahue Show. Wayne Dyer proceeded to build on his success with lecture tours, a series of audiotapes, and regular publication of new books. His message resonated with many in the New Thought Movement and beyond. He often recounted anecdotes from his family life, and repeatedly used his own life experience as an example. His self-made man success story was a part of his appeal.Dyer told readers to pursue self actualization, calling reliance on the self as a guide to "religious" experience, and suggested that readers emulate Jesus Christ, whom he termed both an example of a self-actualized person, and a "preacher of self-reliance".Dyer criticized societal focus on guilt, which he saw as an unhealthy immobilization in the present due to actions taken in the past. He advocated readers to see how parents, institutions, and even they, themselves, have imposed guilt trips upon themselves.
James Peter Haight
A prince among us has gone. On August 28, 2015, James Peter Haight of St. Paul, Minnesota, died comfortably at home surrounded by family. Jim was born on March 25, 1956, sporting both a sideways smile and a skeptical gaze. He was the last and best of the children born to Ludwig and Lucille (Iserman) Haight of Burley, Idaho. Jim was a graduate of the University of Idaho and a proud Vandal. A man of joy and action, Jim worked hard and played hard in equal measure. Throughout a 29-year career, he committed himself completely to his work and to his many friends and colleagues at Andersen Windows. Jim was a life-long member of the Red Sox Nation. He loved to play basketball, golf and tennis. His hustle on the courts and patience on the links was legendary. Jim’s best work was as a father, a husband, a brother and a friend. Family, including precious four-leggeds Maci, Fenway and Bo, and music were his grand passions. Long on charm and short on intolerance, Jim brought competence, humor, music, and wisdom to every circumstance. He cherished each day and would ask us all to do the same. Jim leaves behind his loving wife Pamela Nordaune, his beloved children Sarah and Ryan, and his siblings: John Haight (Mary Brooks); Christine Haight Johnson (Dale); Kathryn Haight; Marjorie Haight; nieces Sally, Tina, Katie and Alice Johnson; parents-in-law Vern and Donna Nordaune; sister-in-law Andrea Nordaune and favorite nephew Charlie Weill. We welcome all who have been touched by Jim’s grace, his humor and his goodness to join us in a celebration of his life: 2 p.m. on Saturday, October 17, 2015, at The Bigelow Chapel, 3000 5th Street NW, New Brighton, Minnesota. In lieu of flowers, memorials preferred to the family. Arrangements by O'Halloran & Murphy (St. Paul), 651-698-0796. www.ohalloranmurphy.com.
