The lighting of a Memorial Candle not only provides a gesture of sympathy and support to the immediate family during their time of need but also provides the gift of extending the Book of Memories for future generations.

Mr. Jeffries. What a great light! It’s an overused metaphor. The idea of a person as light. But for some people, no other expressive comparison fits as well. For Mr. Jeffries—who probably told the 10-year-old version of me to call him Gary—light is right. And, man, was his bright! It started with his smile. Ever present it seemed. And it peaked with a hint of playful mischief in his eye. Also ever present. My mind cannot currently recall specific anecdotes, but there is a strong metamemory of seeing him and being embraced with a quick joke. The man had a phenomenal sense of humor. And I’d propose that it created much joy and warmth in all the people he encountered along his journey. Particularly his most beloved family. Brad and Bruce...you two are in my heart. You’re both good dudes. As he was. To Mrs. Jeffries and Tom and Gary, Jr., I can’t imagine your sense of loss. My hope, for all of you and all of the extended family, is that time will be kind to each of you as the long trail of countless happy memories overtakes today’s grief.
