May+2016

May
Lots going on in the 3 full time lives that I have. I'm a full time Father & Husband. I'm a full time Teacher at Dakota Collegiate. I'm a full time Grad Student at the University of Calgary.

So there's always lots to write about in May. May is also a month of family birthdays and anniversaries. But this May, Tom Roberts is on my mind. I'll let the link below do most of the "talking" here. It is enough for me to say that Tom and I worked together for 12 years, we were good friends, we shared deeply about life, the universe, and everything. It is very sad that he's gone, but I'm glad that he's also no longer in any pain. Over his 4 year battle with cancer he showed me how to be a gallant and heroic fighter and gentleman in the face of an impossible and frightening diagnosis. He showed me how to be a good dad, when the chips are down. He was a good man, and those who had the good fortune to know him certainly benefitted from time spent with Tom.
