Dear Jan aka jm468,

With out you Jan, ForeverSpades would never have existed. You undertook what most would of thought was way too much of an impossible journey. Thank you Jan, for leading us and guiding us along the way. The fruitfulness of all your relentless hours of hard work will always show. We hope to make you proud Jan! As we continue to blossom and grow. True Diligence and your Dedication to a Vision and a Dream. Where both family and friends could go to play some spades, for some pleasure of their own. You built all of this! We thank you for all the many countless hours and the hard work it took of you, to build this Family Tree with aimless, bountiful, strong branches reaching for that endless sky. You did this with Your deepest commitment to Excellence, Your Wisdom, Your Patience and Your Virtue, you are truly Amazing!

Jan, I speak for the Members, Admins, Htd's, and Td's of this of Family of Friends that you built, better known as ForeverSpades! We thank you from the bottom of our heart!

We the ForeverSpades Family and Friends dedicate this Beautiful Poem to you ...

The joy of life is living it, or so it seems to me;
In finding shackles on your wrists, then struggling till you're free;
In seeing wrongs and righting them, in dreaming splendid dreams,
Then toiling till the vision is as real as moving streams.
The happiest mortal on the earth is he who ends his day
By leaving better than he found to bloom along the way.
Were all things perfect here there would be naught for man to do;
If what is old were good enough we'd never need the new.
The only happy time of rest is that which follows strife
And sees some contribution made unto the joy of life.
And he who has oppression felt and conquered it is he
Who really knows the happiness and peace of being free.
The miseries of earth are here and with them all must cope.
Who seeks for joy, through hedges thick of care and pain must grope.
Through disappointment man must go to value pleasure's thrill;
To really know the joy of health a man must first be ill.
The wrongs are here for man to right, and happiness is had
By striving to supplant with good the evil and the bad.
The joy of life is living it and doing things of worth,
In making bright and fruitful all the barren spots of earth.
In facing odds and mastering them and rising from defeat,
And making true what once was false, and what was bitter, sweet.
For only he knows perfect joy whose little bit of soil
Is richer ground than what it was when he began to toil.
