School Story:
Mark Ludwiczak wrote about this on his profile asking if I remembered the incident... We went on a date to see the ducks on Goat Island. We were walking pretty close to the edge of the island when we went through a thick crust of ice and snow...no land! Just water below. Mark pulled himself out and then kind of "swam" over to pull me out. Always and forever, Mark is the guy who saved my life. We laughed it off that day, but the memory and my gratitude to a funny, warm, kind, brave young man remain deeply imbedded in my heart. Thanks, Mark. Glad we made it.
