It seems that each month now has several sad anniversaries in it. Today would have been Sandy's 30th birthday - something most people take for granted. It seems so unfair to have such a talented and special person not even make it that far. It definitely gives credence to the saying "only the good die young".
I don't know whether there is any awareness after death; I'd like to think so and know that Sandy would be honored by her memorial service tomorrow. Her closest friends, some food, drink and a tribute to who she really was - no religious mumbo-jumbo, no church service. Friends, shared memories and camaraderie. The important things.
Happy Birthday to you, Sandy, wherever you are. Thanks for being such an inspiration and good friend. You are greatly missed.

I just wanted to say... I have seen you mention missing Sandy several times and I really miss her too. She was a special person in our community. Wise, thoughtful, kind, in a world in which it seems most people are the opposite. My one regret is that I did not get to know her better. We did exchange a couple of notes back and forth - it was enough to know that she was definitely on my "A" list.
