Death comes knocking, knocking at our door.
L's dad passed away very suddenly in PA on New Year's Day. His dad had, had a full, good life---ninety-nine years old---as a Church of the Brethern pastor. He was alert and talking to the end.
L is joining his sister in PA (she lives there) for the funeral, etc. Many, many thanks to the gracious people at Alaska Airlines for finding the most convenient connection to Harrisburg and for providing the Bereavement fare (1/2 the $1300 ticket). I'm staying home to teach, etc.
Once again, the reality of death comes home.
