They exist by grace of the doings and sufferings of the continuous human community in which we are a link. Ours is the responsibility of conserving, transmitting, rectifying and expanding the heritage of values we have received that those who come after us may receive it more solid and secure, more widely accessible and more generously shared than we have received it.”A COMMON FAITH(Gravestone Flat)In MemoriamJohn DeweyOctober 20, 1859June 1, 1952Roberta L.
