Four decades ago, two friends sat down at a spiritual message board. What started as simple curiosity turned into a historical adventure – a bridge between two worlds! Thus began an amazing journey with the delivery of new poems, stories, and recollections signed by such names from yesterday as Emily Dickinson, John F. Kennedy, Elvis, Edgar Allan Poe, Socrates, Shakespeare, Freud, and Jimi Hendrix. Almost forty years ago two young friends – August da Silva and Eric Marshall – sat down to try a spiritual message board and discovered that by doing this together they were receiving interesting and unexpected guidance, anecdotal observations, literary stories, and poems. These words were transcribed and many were signed by their authors – people who had passed on, some famous and some just needing a last word. Over the course of several years, the collected material grew larger and the two friends decided to organize these poems, stories, memoirs, and observations. They cannot prove that these words were written by those whose names appear in this book, nor can they prove that these words came from the spiritual energies of the departed supposedly living outside of the presently known dimensions of space and time; they just present this material as it was given to them, unaltered in any way, for the enjoyment of those who choose to read this book. These pages sat in a basement for the last forty years. Today they reemerge, and the two friends hope you enjoy reading the passages in "PASSED VOICES: Yesterday Meets Today" with as much excitement and wonder as they had when they first received them from those unknown dimensions!
