I can't say goodbye. It doesn't seem possible. But I know I won't be seeing her for a while. I won't be getting a phone call from her first thing in the morning saying "are you up?" Nor will I get calls from her while we are out, saying, "when will you be home to read Tyler's email?"
There are a lot of things we won't be doing for a while. And new things we will be doing. We'll be missing her. And we'll remember to check on her family more often. And hopefully, we'll follow her example of continued service.
I can't say more. Just...I love her.
