I came across this obituary randomly looking up old friends, and I’m very, very saddened.
Beth (as I knew her then) and I crossed paths for a short, brilliant time in the late 80’s…I never imagined that I’d never see her again.
The girl I knew was spirited, funny, strong-willed, adventurous, fearless, and most of all unforgettable in spades.
As fate would have it, she was my fork in the road untaken…I feel her energy and her impish smile like it was yesterday, and I’m a better man to have shared her space.
Richard, a small boy you were then, she guarded you like a treasure…I’m so sorry, 49 is much much too soon: condolences, regrets; she’s worth every tear.
