spelling bees

[MrsDan]

A friend of Dan's from the library posted a picture from the paper of the local spelling bee. My first thought was I don't want to see that. Dan was always the celebrity judge. Then I looked closer. It was the third annual Mr. Dan ***** Memorial Spelling Bee, and I realized it was on his wall.

 

I miss him so much.

Yes, they leave a large, gaping hole in our lives, and the aching emptiness lingers.

 

 

"Where you used to be, there is a hole in the world,

which I find myself constantly walking around in the daytime,

and falling in at night."

 

~~ Edna St Vincent Millay

 

 

 

 

 

In the tranquil hour of the night,

When stars illume the sky,

I gaze upon each orb of light,

And wish that thou wert by.

 

~~George Linley

 

 

Sending you Light and Peace!

what a wonderful thing though to have honored him that way.  Big squishy hug

I'm so sorry seeing that was such a trigger.  He must have been so wonderful and have touched so many lives to be remembered and loved so much by his old friends and colleagues.  Sometimes it's hard to see how much others miss them, because it just reminds us once again how amazing they were, how terrible losing them really was, and how big of a hole they've left in our lives. 

 

Just ((hugs)), MrsDan.

Awwww... That's awesome that they've named it after him.  I'm sure it'll make you smile someday. :-\
