The famous volume of photographs and essays about the extreme poverty in the American South during the Great Depression was titled "Let Us Now Praise Famous Men". Though it quotes Ecclesiasticus 44:1, it is actually a reference to Ecclesiasticus 44:9. Though I wept when I first read that verse, when I read on, I was reminded that those who leave behind no memorial are still remembered by God, by their family, and by their community. That is what matters most.
