SHE LOOKED OUT FOR US...


You should be so lucky...
It was a smaller turnout than our previous brunches,but that's OK.Toody was,well,Toody.
When I think about the people who have had an influence in my life she is at the top of the list.
I kept looking at her hands...all gnarly and wrinkled and used,years of a life dedicated to the service of children condensed into hands-they tell the story better than anything else.
And here she sits with some of her favorite "children" 30 plus years after the fact.
We were (are) lucky.
Toody,I love you...more than you'll ever know...but you already knew that.
