Heavy Saturday

Heavy Saturday. I've been pensieve all week. My boss died while I was on vacation last week. I was without phone/internet, and didn't find out until I got back to the States.

Funeral was today. It was in the Grand Ballroom at the Marriott. There was a lot of people in attendance, patients, classmates, professional colleagues, friends, family, church members.

Jason went with me, and it was comforting having him close. It was a very sad affair. I cried when I saw the little table with his lab coat and loupes on it. His son was wearing his watch. His parents are both still alive, and it was heartbreaking to see them hobbling in to take their seats.

For early as spring was this year and how mild the weather has been, there was a cold snap with snow today. Doctor loved winter time, snow, and skiing in Colorado. It was really coming down during the service, and we all took comfort knowing it was Doctor letting us know he was with us.
