Sunday June 1st
As I was taking Pearl for a long walk this morning, I was reflecting on the wonderful memorial event that we shared last week. From the candle lighting, to the readings, the personal memories, the bowl that cracked during the Magic Fire music to the great walk up the hill behind Jinx's xylophone-giant-tricycle to Greg's house for the Indian buffet from one of Dan's favorite restaurants, this day will live in my heart forever. Fire has always had a deep meaning for me as a symbol for light, warmth, intensity, purification and transcendence, so my special thanks to Kate, Mirian and Billy who worked so hard. I do not believe that we will ever fully understand why Dan took his own life, and frankly, I hope that no one will fully comprehend it because then they would suffer that same pain. To all of our friends and family, I love you. Dan was very lucky to have you all in his life and we were all lucky to have Dan in ours.
