                                 PRAYER

  The Chaplain, Rev. James David Ford, D.D., offered the following 
prayer:
  On this day we acknowledge those people who have made a difference in 
our lives and we remember them with admiration and gratitude. We are 
thankful, O gracious God, that we do not have to walk the road of life 
alone or meet the challenges of our day by ourselves, but rather our 
lives are enhanced and made full by the support and blessing of those 
near and dear to us. For families whose nurture to us is overwhelming, 
for colleagues who help point the way, and for friends whose affection 
and trust surround us, we offer these words of thanksgiving and 
appreciation. In Your name, we pray. Amen.
