We Love You Cindy Stowell
On December 5th, the world lost a sweet soul, for her body lost its fight;
Colonic cancer had invaded it, with it’s promise of periled plight!
She was only forty-one years old, with a future solid as could be;
But fate stepped in and changed all that, dealing her a different destiny!
Her education was impeccable, she earned her P.H.D.;
Her thesis dealt with nanocrystals, in her field of Chemistry!
Young, brilliant, and so beautiful, she amazed all of her peers;
Her research and discoveries, made our heroine quite revered!
But then a couple of years ago, she received a deadly blow;
A screening of her digestive tract, showed cancer down below!
She took all the prescribed treatments, chemo, radiation, and strong pills;
But none of them could stop its march, she had six months to enjoy some frills!
The thing she had always planned on, was to compete on Jeopardy;
But when they found out she had but months to live, the producers said “This must be”!
They expedited her appearance, she won six times in a row;
You’ll see her in “The Tournament of Champions”, in her stars eternal glow!
All of her winnings, $106,000 were donated to cancer research, so that others might not have to lose their lives as she did!

Hey Brother LARRY!!....... this is such a beautiful written dedication....... and a powerfully compelling read!!!..... AMAZING how life plays itself out in so many different ways!!...... eloquently delivered my friend!!......a,fine piece of writing!!.:.......ALL STARS!!......T xo. ?
My Dear Brother Tony,
We are avid Jeopardy fans, and watch it every day, because it is a wonderful challenge for the mind. We had heard about this poor lady's plight, and when her reign began a few weeks ago, we pulled for her every day. Â Remarkably, although there were several close calls, she won six times in a row, qualifying for the Tournament of Champions, which sadly, she did not live long enough to participate in. Â Her life, played itself out far too prematurely. Â Thank you for your lovely insights.
Peace, Love and Rockets,

Hi Kimmy,
It was so tearful to watch her on Jeopardy, knowing that she had already passed away. Â It was so nice to see her faced with such adversity, yet still able to smile and win six games in a row. Â Thank you for your kind words.
Peace and Love,
