The death of any person diminishes us all. I was thinking of last year where I had to leave the building when they spoke the names of those who can not join us ever again. This year with the loss of Linda Sinclair, Bob Scholes, and some others it is again going to be too much for me, that is a personal thing, and just my problem. We have heard that we should take a minute to remember Angie, (something I do every day), and keep thinking of so many others that are only fond memories. What we should do today if remember those who are still here, still alive, and still able to remember us. Each day is a gift, a gift of being able to talk to those who are with us, and remember those who are not. It is also the opportunity to forgive those who might make a mistake, to understand our friends who might not be perfect every minute of their lives, and to reflect on how fortunate we are to be able to understand life as best we can. Also, that we have a chance to go to another National, and that we have Paula to remind us how many days left before that chance. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
