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.
-Jennifer
