A Memorial
I'm in the U.S. for a week or so for the High Holidays, and will return to Chennai next week. Weather in Michigan is pleasant---a bit cool today, with rain.
This post is dedicated to our friend Karen Mika, who died of breast cancer this past week. She battled bravely for 7 years, but lost her fight last Wednesday, and we attended her services yesterday. Whenever I wipe down a kitchen counter, I think of her--it was a legacy from both our mothers who were of a certain generation, and a private joke we shared. There are many other things to remember--she was a wonderful mother and friend to many--- but this is one that was a funny and unique bond. May her memory be a blessing.
