By now all of you know that Catherine passed away the week before last; the stress and sadness for Danny and the kids can only be guessed at. After dealing with the immediate grieving process, and all the necessary logistics, Danny took a couple of days to clear his head, breath some fresh air, and start to think about the future. I was happy to spend time with him, glad to be able to cheer him up, and help him put his mind - for a brief while - on other things and happier times. We skied, did yoga, ate pastry at Schaat's, bouldered, and had dinners at Petite Pantry. Calling all fossils, pick up the phone and give him a call, he can use our support.
