Here's the second statement:

TO BE READ ON THE OCCASION OF MY MEMORIAL, IN THE EVENT AFORE-MENTIONED MEMORIAL, DOES TAKE PLACE:

 If this is being read, I must be dead, and that being said, lend me your head, or at least the part you listen with.

I am above all else a Professional, so I like to be on time ( or maybe even a little early ) and prepared.

Life was all I could hope for and more; There were lots of ups and more than a few downs. If you don’t have any bad parts, how are you going to recognize the good parts?

I made lots of mistakes and tripped over my own ego here and there, but hopefully all in the aid of learning to be closer to the enlightened potential of my being. 

I thank Jan for being the true love of my life and my best friend.

I thank Ramblin' Jack Elliot for introducing me to the I Ching, one morning on McDougal Street in Greenwich Village many years ago. Joe Bones for his gift of an easier translation of the I Ching to read.

I thank everyone I have ever known for the life lessons they have tried to teach me. They each had a lesson to impart even though I did not always understand it.

I especially thank those who made me laugh. You know who you are. Yes Jan, you are on this list too.

I thank my daughters Christine and Lovisa, for trying to teach me how to be a father and I apologize for the areas where I dropped the ball.

I thank Tolin for letting me be Grandfather and opening areas of my heart that had been  sealed and scarred when I was a little boy.

I thank the yin and yang of universal pulse that allows us to experience this life.and all of its wonders.
