"The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power. ”
— Franklin D. Roosevelt

This is amazing...
Knowing Lauren, she would have been embarrassed by all the fuss, but she was worth every bit of it, and Jackson Baker notes her passing at the Flyer. Please take time to read it, it is awesome.
I'm glad to see you dealing with everything with the kind of strength you have.
ReplyDeleteWhen tragic loss comes my way, again, I'll remember your example, LWC.
I'm also very grateful to all those who were there for you. That takes an uncommon strength as well.
Good people really are good for each other. Obviously you and Lauren know and are related to many of them.
