Sad Day

Today was a sad day. Actually it's been a sad year. One of our good friends, Bev, died Saturday of Lou Gehrig's disease (ALS) and today was her funeral. It was a cruel way to go. She had such an amazing spirit throughout and was a perfect example of being kind to everyone. She left behind a wonderful husband and three kids, ages 21, 16 and 11. It was an honor to know her and to be her friend. She has made me want to be a better person. I hope we can all reflect a little bit more on what's really important to us in our lives.
p.s. She was only 49!
