When my youngest son was in day care, one day I picked him up and before we got to the car he said, "Ronald was acting strange and had to go to the hospital." I turned around and went straight back to learn that one of his teachers had a stroke while playing basketball with the kids. He didn't make it. He was about 40. My son was right there when he was stricken.

His funeral was in early July 2001 and my son and I attended. Before the end of that month we had buried Bekah, my son's big sister. It was a traumatic month for a 9-year-old.
