Non Je Ne Regrette Rien by Edith Piaf
“I once lived in College Station, Texas. Across the street from me lived an old man named Bob. He became one of my best friends. He was from Tacoma but he lived in France during World War II and lived in Hawaii for years after that helping the homeless. He was also a professor and a psychologist at some point. Back in the day, he once played piano for Edith Piaf while she sang this song. He said he once danced with Rita Hayworth at a party. Bob became my mentor and was a dear friend until his death in 2011. For his wisdom and guidance, I became a better person. I became the person I am now due to his influence. He encouraged me and believed in my academic goals and my dreams while no one else did. My favorite quote of his is, "It does not matter what people think of you. It only matters what you think of them." Bob helped me become unafraid to follow my dreams and for that I am always thankful. I dared to follow my life path because of him. Thank you, Bob. Wish you were here.”

OK...if French is what we want, no one like "El Gorrion de Paris"

Ms. Piaf, the Little Sparrow, always takes me to a new height!
Sums up my feelings regarding Monday. This is closure!
