Two souls have passed today. Major Pat called me this morning to announce that his brother-in-law died sometime this morning...before 7:00. His son found him in total cardiac arrest. He had Lou Gehrig's Disease and was not expected to live. Sad.
Then, suddenly, on Facebook, there was the announcement that Rich Dimmack has passed. Rich was the 7th grade English teacher. I was the 8th grade teacher. We were a team.
Rich was probably 37 or 38...never smoked, never drank...but came up with cancer of the liver. He was married to the very upbeat French teacher at Monrovia High School. They are/were a splendid couple...have 5-year-old twins and a maybe two-year-old infant. May God bless his soul and give strength to his wife and children...and his former students.
I'm tired of the fight. Guess I need to go to bed because nothing seems worth it anymore.
