Later, I sat beside him on the bed and he told me that one of his favorite memories was of the two of us reading the Sunday New York Times together. I told him that Tom and I still talk about taking a tour of his

I'm sorry to hear about Bob. A hug and a kiss.

Oh, J, my heart is with you and your mom and whole family. I'm touched by your description of sitting with Bob, and with the memories.

What an incredible year this last has been, hasn't it?

Hey, would you email me (jlehman AT library.wisc.edu) and remind me what your mom's email address is (mailing address too, if you wouldn't mind)? M has them both, I think, but I'm not sure where, and I'd like to send your mom a message very soon.

Much love,
J

What you wrote about Bob liking to see people in the airport resonates with one of my favourite Ani DiFranco Songs - The Arrival Gate.
