Elliott Brack

I went to Elliot Brack's funeral yesterday. He was a friend. And he was quite a character. He was one of the first people I met outside of work when I moved to Georgia. He was sort of a variation of the main character of Tom Wolfe's "A Man In Full". I used to say that Elliott and I had a 50-50 relationship. He told me what to do and I did it. His 50% was telling me. My 50% was doing it. He was a fixture at my church and involved me in all sorts of things. Including organization of our "Civic Breakfast" where we invited leaders from the community for information and opinions of the community. It goes on and on. There were 260 people attending his funeral. He will be missed. https://www.crowellbrothers.com/obituaries/Elliott-Earl-Brack?obId=48440319

Ananova - Man gets stuck up tree trying to rescue cat Fawna stood up on her own!! Of course she fell down after she got up but she has been down since January 16th. This is the first time I have seen her stand up on her own in just short of a month! This sure has been a learning experience. It is interesting to watch the information triangulate and become knowledge. I think some of the best advice we have received was from a vet in New Berlin NY... he said, "... and lots of TLC". Fauna has taught us a lot about llamas and ourselves. She is not all better yet and we need to make sure we don't have our hopes up too high. The bottom line is that she has saved her life again. I am going to give her some more accupuncure today. It was a great sight to see her stand up for me this morning. I was so excited for her. After she fell down, I gave her a big hug on her neck.

Welcome to the Hemi-Sync? Website! - Home Just got an email from an old friend/coworker. It was a timely message. I was just thinking about the special relationships we form with people we have worked with. I intentionally mean *worked* with. The people we currently work with we take for granted. The people we no longer work with always leave a permanent impression on on us. We may not even remember their name after the years.. But you can see their face and their words and the quirky stuff they do. I am so appreciative of some of the people I have met at work (some of them have been incredibly interesting). I remember a story I read about siblings and that they have a unique relationship because they will know no other individual as long as they know their sibling. Not friends, parents, children...But brothers and sisters are stuck with each other. I find a similar uniqueness with former coworkers. The relationship is unique and worthy of recognition of being unique. I guess that...
