IN MEMORIAM

We remember and honor those Codgers who are no longer with us.



There is only one way to understand a lonely bench in a park:
Sit on it; watch whatever it is watching; listen to whatever it is
listening to! Sit in spring, sit in winter, sit in summer, sit in fall. To understand something deeply, you need to sit on it and live its life! As we dedicate this bench, may those that sit on it see serendipitous and joyous play. May we also find moments to just be and rest amid our play on this bench. And let us give thanks for those who have gone before us and who remind us of the fun and friendship that is Codger ball. Amen.
