Sounds like a great ride to me, Chris. Sorry you had to cut it short.
That's very cool about both your moms, Dinny and Wayne. I feel like a slacker given what my parents did over the years for their various communities--as teachers, teacher mentors, political activists, church volunteers, etc., etc.--but then I remember that a lot of what they did was later in life when time became more available. It makes me feel better to think that, anyway.
