Remembrances
 
“It was disturbing hearing you go up against Jones about sending a letter to your daughter. You tried to outwit him by playing the "Aw shucks" character, but as usual others courted favor by turning against you. It was in your conversation that I realized that no mail came in or went out, that it was read and held against you. I hope that as a Reverend you held onto your beliefs so as to not be condemned to the same fate as the evil around you.” - Anonymous

“It's hard to even put into words the horror and cruelty you were subjected to, when Jim Jones found out that you were trying to reach your daughter (of whom I'm sure you truly loved and cared about) in the United States. I don't even want to think that you were forced to drink the poison. God Bless your soul.” - Anonymous
