Memory

On Sunday we learned that Laura had passed away. She and her husband Neil were members of the choir. They came for drinks with us. The choir sang at their wedding. They disappeared from my view, as so many friends or acquaintances disappear from view. As we let them drift away. Thinking that maybe we'll give them a call sometime. Or ask about them. Maybe we should get to know them better. And then our busy lives get a hold of us... and now the bulbs are out and what happened to winter?

And we'll never get to know them as well as they deserve. I never knew she blogged.
I remember her, sweet and smart and unique. How do we let people slip away?

Such sadness. My thoughts are with you, Neil.
