Note: many of you enjoyed Ed Foster's work over the years; I thought that I'd pass this on for those who aren't on his mailing list
-- Ed Leafe - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - I apologize for the length of time since the last newsletter. The first week after a loved one dies is an extremely hectic one(who knew?). We had to plan the memorial service, find a venue, meet and visit relatives and so on. As for the second week, well, I couldn't do much of anything. I mostly sat around and watched Tv, read books, moved some furniture, and watched some tv(did I mention that?). I'm definitely not over it. it's the first thing I think about in the morning, and the last thing I think about before I go to bed. It occupies my thoughts throughout the middle of the day as well. I'm not sure I'll ever stop thinking in this way. I'm also not sure whether I want to. What I wanted to tell everyone was that the outpouring of support through comments and emails was amazing. There was no better testament to my dad's work then those comments. They made a lot of people who knew him feel just a tiny bit better. 20 or so of my family's favorites where read aloud at the memorial service. We could all wish such a sendoff when it's our turn to go. In the end, what I wanted to say, was thank you. Thank you for showing me that my father meant something to so many people. Thank you for showing me that this thing he started has to go on, and thank you for giving me the courage not to give up on it. I will have a post up later today dealing with what I think needs to happen to let the Gripelog continue. I'm going to need help.
