Goodbye, Doug. For now.

I got some really sad news last Sunday, February 5th.  My boss, my mentor, my friend died suddenly Saturday night. 


We spoke at Doug's funeral.  It was one of the hardest things I've ever done but when Fanni asked us to share stories about Doug at work for his kids we knew we had to say yes. 



Monday morning, the university honored Doug's passing by lowering the flag. 



It was so hard to see this on the screens all over the building at work. 
Robert wrote a great article about Doug's passion for education.

It was an honor to be included in the viewing with family Saturday evening and to be invited to dinner at Doug and Fanni's home on Sunday evening. 
I wasn't ready to say goodbye, so I'll just say see you later.
