I was so, so sad to learn the news about Anni Hansen. She was a special friend to me in grade school and I was always extremely fond of her and her family. When I read she had passed away I felt like I had been punched physically. It was a stunning feeling and it brought tears to my eyes. There are so many upsetting things going on right now and perhaps this was a sort of tipping point for me. The feelings of loss came upon me in such a strong and unexpected manner. I had not been with Anni in so many years and yet I recalled in just that moment running up the steps to her house expecting lunch with the shoestring potato chips her mother had usually made for us. It was powerful! Oh... those sweet memories of childhood in Whitefish Bay.
We were thrilled with the awards Justin has received. What an amazing fellow!
