Easter (Passover) – On many levels Marc was a consumate friend as well as son. Every day I tell God how grateful I am for having had the experience of knowing such a wonderful person, great son and friend! Marc was so trustworthy, I always felt safe with him. He’s never tried to use or manipulate me. He meant what he said, he had the deepest integrity. I could rely on him to help out or just give a comment about an issue I was concerned about, he was always there when I needed some help. I admired how he could give a wise answer on matters of politics, nutrition & fitness, family issues, work or his faith in God.
Now he’s not around but I’m left with some little personal things to remember him in a vivid, physical way. At times I’ll bury my face in his jackets or shirts to smell his body musk! Along with various photos I’ve gathered, I’ve now got 4-5 recordings of his voice, so I play them to remember. I even found a Ucam video on his computer, and it’s such a trip to watch him learning how to work the video. These personal reminders mean so much, I can’t bear to think how it would be to not have them!
(I’ve had an extra busy couple months at work and so haven’t written as often. My schedule will ease up soon.)
