This blog has many postings over the years referencing my brother, Tom Turner. Today is the anniversary of Tom’s death, three years ago. The man had two degrees in English, yet strangely he was not into writing, only reading and quoting — it was the teacher in him. Going through his letters and notes, it was not always easy to know when it was him and someone he loved reading. “– the degree of credence with which one reads any given news report is always in inverse ratio to the degree of knowledge one has of the situation that is being reported.”
He went on to quote Samuel Beckett who described the situation of a certain kind of artist who interested him:
“Having nothing to express,
Nothing with which to express;
Together with the need to express.”

Looks like a very sweet man; you are very lucky to have had him as a brother!
There is a magic in real togetherness that truly is eternal!
