Robin was the sweet-tempered receptionist for a local business in my industry. We spent a good amount of time of the telephone, and I got to know her pretty well. At the Christmas party we spent the whole evening hanging out together. She was smart, funny, and fun to be with. She loved her antique car. She had dreams, and was working toward living those dreams. Now she’s gone, and she’s taken those dreams with her. As quickly as that, a woman only in her 20’s has vanished. A seizure killed her. I’m sorry, Robin. I’m so sorry. ---

_sigh_ That’s really heart breaking, especially since she was so young. It’s terrible to see someone with their whole life ahead of them die. My condolences to her family. But, at least you can look at it this way: even though she died young she died on top; from the sound of things she loved life and I think it’s even sadder when a person dies never knowing how great living can be. If you catch my meaning. ---
