I’m at an age where attending funerals is a more frequent activity.
And although the circumstances are sad, I value the opportunity to connect with people I haven’t seen in many years.
Recently, one local resident sweetly said we are all “Avalon cousins” who shared a unique experience growing up on the island during the same era.
We compare notes of our memories, and hear stories of kindness. We chat about teachers who made a huge difference in our lives and wonder if they ever knew the impact. And we laugh about the antics of our childhood.
