Title: Re: [may99] Re: (may99) Sad Weekend
Dear Connie,
 
I'm sorry for all the losses you've encountered this weekend.  It is very sad.
 
We received some bad news this weekend too.  Yesterday morning, while I was brushing my teeth, my cell rang.  DH answered it & gave it to me.  Around a mouthful of toothpaste, I mumbled "Hello?".  It was my 75-year-old Aunt Kas (my deceased stepdad's sister in California).  Their cousin May (who I was *very* close to as a child, and then became close with again after Alicia was born) had been found dead in her bathroom last Saturday (a week ago) by a parent of one of her music students (she taught violin & viola ~ it was May who helped nourish my own love for the viola).  It sounds like she'd been there a *minimum* of two days, but they don't know how long.  It sounds like a massive heart attack.  May was only in her 50s.  I am devastated.  She gave Alicia a viola last Christmas, and now I have a renewed effort to somehow get her music lessons after the first of the year.

Peggy,

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}} I'm so sorry.  How terrible for you and your family.  It will be great if Alicia can carry on that spark by playing viola.  Ari just started playing, had his first recital today.  I loved listening to the more advanced viola students - that instrument has such a gorgeous sound.
