It seems like we just met in Sunnyvale for our 50th
birthday party. It was so nice to see everybody in
that context, and now we're about to do it again.
I was sad to learn that Pat Amato had finally left us,
but happy for her. As unnerving as the cancer had
been, she was psyched to be off to the next chapter
of her life with God. Good-bye to Tom Duncan, too.
Our kids are settled into their own lives, Katherine
(and two wild-women grandaughters)
in Los Altos, Zach in Massachusetts, and Steph in New
Hampshire; and that's a lucky thing. Two out of three
so close is a lucky break.
