Kate’s 2¢: “Breaking Her Fall”
by Stephen Goodwin
by Stephen Goodwin
Oh, what a parent’s nightmare! Most of us do the best we can to teach our children right from wrong and pray they internalize the difference.
Good win’s description of the burial ceremony of the Admiral in Arlington Cemetery was very moving, awe inspiring and viscerally resonating.
The description of Lilie playing tennis after her father’s memorial was priceless.
Gregory Gorton did a good job of narrating this story.
