Blink of an eye

We’re reeling from the news that a beloved family friend in Albuquerque has passed away unexpectedly. We’re all thinking, “not him, can’t be him.” Such a vital man taken too soon. I’m heartbroken for his family, and selfishly want to gather my spouse and family close in greater appreciation for them. How appropriate was that keynote speech tonight, urging us to live in the moment?

Bruce, I’m going to miss you. The only thing ferocious about you was your loyalty and friendship. Even a small girl understood that growing up around you.
