While I was on vacation, a coworker passed away unexpectedly. She was just 40 years old with a 7 year old daughter and a husband. She worked as a reporter for the newspaper on the Education Beat. She always had a smile for everyone and was quick to help out anyone who needed it. She will be deeply missed.

For Amy, I will keep riding that razor, keep climbing trees, keep jumping on trampolines, keep doing the unexpected. Learn to love harder, live better and enjoy every minute of my life. Because life is a gift and needs to be lived to the fullest. As they say, life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.

Goodbye Amy. Till next time we meet.
