Challenge isn't always in the hills

By dp - Posted on March 19th, 2010

Just thought I'd share the obituary of my mom with you.  Some here have met her; others heard about her; and some of you either gave her assurances but usually were implicated by the (generally) dissaproving glances when I told her I was going on a(nother) trip....

Dp,
 
Thanks for sharing your Mom's obituary.  I had no idea she was so versed in linguistics although it's not surprising, knowing your command of Italian.  Nice to read also - although again, not surprising, knowing you - that she was such an "agitator," a title I'm sure she wore with great pride, and rightfully so. 
 
My sincere condolences to you.  I hope your Dad is doing as well as possible in this difficult time.
Jeff
