And what a joy it was! Like those merry daffodils that were being covered with soil the very moment you died, which have multiplied and dressed their shaded pond bank in glorious yellow-white blooms in a shout of welcome to spring, to life.
We saw this same contagion of beauty, effort and living at the sale this fall of the purebred cattle herd you began here. The progeny of your careful selections dominated the top-selling lots. Your favorite heifer, #144, always the pet she became in your care, was this despite a strict threeyear cull/replacement program. No better proof of your skill and care in animal husbandry could be offered. . .
Those skills will be honored and multiplied with the Ranee L. Spellman Memorial Fund's first award to a qualified youth. He or she will be a living, working tribute to the richness of your talents and the years of hard work that honed them. Each such award will be another triumph of your life over your death.
