In Memory of Fran

At 1:30 pm today, the president of the company I work for called us all into the large conference room. He does this occasionally, sometimes to celebrate a new contract and sometimes to make announcements of a more personal nature.

This time, it was definitely not a celebration.

He announced that the wife of one of the company’s principal architects had passed away earlier today.

Even though you know its coming – she’d been fighting the cancer for several months –still it hits you like a ton of bricks.

If anybody out there has any prayers to spare, please join me in honor of Fran Reed, renowned Alaskan artist and a mother & wife.

She was 65.
