Sad & Glad

Sad news, our former neighbors lost their son, Nate, age 26. He grew up on our block and was such a polite and personable boy and young man. Just a really good kid, and a charming presence to have around. He had a faint scattering of freckles on his face and a big hello when you saw him.

I was sorry when the family moved.

I'm not sure of the cause of death, only that his parents are both very lovable and kind and that they also tragically lost an infant boy in year 2000. [They have other children, too.] I plan to attend the services. How can this be, how can they be expected to rebound from the loss of two sons? Such heartbreak. Fate can be so very ruthless.

Glad news, saw Moey for dinner tonight at a pasta restaurant in Saddle Brook.

Must sleep now. Can never get my fill of sleep, it seems.

Good night. Prayers for Nate's family. They do not walk alone.
