Just watched the memorial video
March 14
I could not watch that without some tears, sorry Carlos! But we know where he is: shining down and with Sarah and Amber and in our hearts forever.
Family. Something Leslie said really connected with me particularly. Sarah and Carlos and Amber made us feel like we were practically family. That is the love that comes from good families and their strong connections.
I will always feel love for everyone in your beautiful families, for how you opened your hearts to us in California and for the many fun and delightful times we got to spend together.
Carlos’ family, Sarah’s family and now Lane’s sweet family, too, all carry a piece of Carlos with them forever. His bravery, his joyful spirit, his open and obvious love for everyone he met, especially his fellow fighters of the Good Fight will inspire us for all our days going forward and I’m sure I’m not alone in thinking that he will be on my mind every day until my own final moments, inspiring me to be kinder and less selfish, to fight harder and more cheerfully.
If you are reading this please give yourself a big giant hug from Tom and Warren and I, we love you so much.
