I got to spend quite a bit of time with my boys this weekend. What gorgeous weather!
I took the boys to Lorren’s Memorial at The Connecticut Dance Conservatory tonight. What an amazing night! Her husband Carl set out tons of photos & memorabilia that filled each room of the studio. Lorren was always such a gracious host and hosted our food coop potluck dinners for many years. We had some fantastic food, drink & conversation. Really very special times. Lorren & her family were also so accepting of our kids even when they wert the best behaved. We will carry fond memories of those times always.
What a great life. I’m sad she had to go so soon, but she defiantly lived it to the fullest.
