A final gesture for peace
Eve D. Casey of Mashpee died in Mashpee on October 30, 2008 at the age of 93 1/2.
Several days before her passing this sweet lady, the mother of a friend of mine, Jim Casey, a Mashpee builder and carpenter, wanted to make a final statement and asked her son to take a picture of her with a "Stand for Peace" button.
Jim tells me his mom was a promoter of peace her entire life.

About This Blog
Paul Rifkin was born 66 years ago and not a day too soon. Socialist Jewish blood flows through his arteries and veins - his capillaries are getting clogged with the righteous indignation directed toward our fellow citizen's complicity with the immorality of our government.
Born in Brooklyn, N.Y., first kiss at the age of 14 at Pottstown (PA) Community Camp, U.S. Army (1960-1962) honorably discharged but barely, graduated from George Washington University (1965), San Francisco hippie (1965-1972), Zen Buddhist monk (1972-1974), world traveler, hedonist and womanizer (1974-1979), ran Boston Marathon (1982) but barely, settled down with Ellen Mycock (1988) and stopped womanizing, co-owner of Moonakis Cafe in Waquoit, Falmouth (1989-present), photographer (1948-present), professional videographer (1994-present) peace activist (seemingly forever), hot-tempered but good-hearted (from birth).
