I loved reading Lisa's spunky replies. My sympathy go out to her family, David

Such a loss.
 To the family and all friends my condolences. Lisa definately made the most out of her life and everyone else in it with her is a better person because of it. She'll live on in memory (and on here) and in her kids. They all have a piece of her inside and together, with their father will get though this difficult time.

Mike is a good man. But then, would Lisa have married anybody but a good man?
My thoughts are with him and the children...

Her death has hit me unbelievably hard for someone I've never met.

Me too, Denis...me too. She gave me a lot of moral support when others were flaming me. The world lost a classy lady...

Though of course I feel as though I know her, like many other people here we only correspond with or read their thoughts and accounts of their lives. She had so many attractive qualities as a human being; backbone, sense of humor, resourcefulness, great parent, lover of life, etc., etc...

Tom, Charlotte, Billy, and I all appreciate your thoughts and best wishes. We are just starting to get some normality back into our routine, the kids started back at school and work today.
I will be back to work Monday but probably with reduced hours for a while. Again, thank you all so much for the support, it has been an invaluable help!

I've been thinking about this a lot. I'm not getting any younger and time is precious and fleeting. A co-worker of mine (guy whose office is literally right next to mine) started complaining about a pain in his shoulder three weeks ago. Went to the doc figuring he'd get a cortizone shot. They found a cancerous growth. He went out of work two weeks ago and hasn't been back. Got word last week he had emergency gall bladder surgery and then the bomb got dropped yesterday - he's not coming back at all. They've discontinued treatment and he's been sent home under hospice care with two weeks to live at the outside. He's only 59 and has three kids. A few "old timers" who are good friends with him in the office went to go visit him Wednesday night and were pretty distraught yesterday. Unreal. Super nice guy too - he helped ground me somewhat as I can get pretty passionate at times. His approach was always to be super laid back and deflect the confrontations, and I admired that. He's one of those guys who was never loud or aggressive, always smooth and led a pretty simple, happy life. It always seems to happen to the good people - never the jerks who deserve it. I really feel for his family. Life is way, way too short to be consumed by minutia. Any one of us could find out at any moment we've got three weeks, or four, or maybe no warning at all.

Mike
Keep a copy of this thread for the kids to read one day - it will easily show how much she was admired and respected by all her friends around the world. We all will miss her and many of us are thinking of you all each day. Take care and best wishes to you all. Tim
