Losing Classmates

Today, my graduating class from CCHS lost another one.

Unfortunately, we have lost a few.

Because of Facebook, we were able to know of his tragic motorcycle accident.

He lived in Anchorage. He was a veteran. He was a father.

It seems just like yesterday that we were sitting in Spanish class. He had convinced me that he was adopted until I called his bluff.

It's true that what you remember about someone is how they made you feel. He made me laugh and slightly roll my eyes at his craziness.

I find it so affirming the bond of my graduating class as we traveled so many years together. Yet, years later we still hold that bond.

Moral of the Story: Embrace today.
