It was a tremendously sad shock to hear that Marc had had a heart attack on Sunday. Marc was just 40 years old, had been married to Ami (Cathey's niece) less than a year and had a beautiful baby daughter, Sage. I blogged about Sages' baptism just three weeks ago.
Marc was a fun-loving, construction worker guy. He was always 'in the moment', and always looked you right in the eye, usually with something interesting to say. It's just stunning that he's gone.
Ami and Sage now have very different roads ahead of them than what had been first thought. I really feel for them, but I know that Ami has an amazing strength within her. She'll need our help and our hopes while she shifts gears to the new reality. I know that she can walk her new road with strength. Eventually. One day at a time will get us all there.
One photo here is of Marc with Sage just after her birth. The other is at the baptism... the proud parents Marc and Ami are at the font with godparents Janet, Tom and Jody (L-R).
Carpe Diem people.
