I keep running into things that make me sad about Kef
Today I was making art history slides of Egyptian art.

That was bad enough. I was putting them together and thinking about him fondly and sadly....and then I remembered about how excited he was about King Tut's exhibition coming to America this year.

And then there I was, bawling silently in the Visual Resources Collection....

:cry:

2. Try also to remember what a great human being Kef was
Of course there are going to be things that remind you of him but try to keep his spirit in full bloom as well.:hug:

8. If you want to put in the "Ripples Speak of the Rock" thing,
be my guest--it's still posted on the front page somewhere.

5. Me too..
At work a high-school-age kid came in with a Vasquez patch on his jacket. My first thought was how Keph was going to miss out on the new Fillerbunny. :cry:

10. Sure, add it!
I'm hanging in there. I wanted to fly out for the funeral but don't have the money. :-(

11. Me too. I never really communicated directly with Kef, but
he was such a reassuring presence here. It was nice to check in at LBN during the day, and see that he was keeping us up to date on everything. What a sad and shocking thing to hear last weekend. And he was so young, too. We're all a little diminished by his absence.
