Our dear friend, Sally Watson, visited us the other day. She was stepmother to our friend, Steve Watson, who died from AIDS in 1995. We comforted Sally and Bob (Steve’s father) while they held vigil during Steve’s last couple of months. Sally lost Bob last year; he was 99 and had a full and wonderful life. Sally misses him terribly and said her time with him were the happiest of her life. We had a nice lunch for Sally and her daughter and a nice visit afterwards. As we were saying goodbye to Sally during what was probably the last time we will see her, she said to me, “I want to tell you one thing … you and Patty should enjoy every day!” It’s a lesson I will never forget.
