Loss of an Angel
I received word today that one of my friends from SSO died this morning. Her name was Angel.
Angel was way too young to die – she went to the doctor with a UTI, got a prescription, went home & went to bed after taking it, woke up this morning complaining of her chest hurting so she went back to bed and never woke up. Her husband found her later when he went to check on her. They have a young daughter.
Besides being able to tell a joke so deadpan that I wouldn’t know if she was serious or not, Angel was a fantastic artist. She would sit at her station drawing pictures using one of those computer art pads and her laptop. In art school, she was often working on a project but would find time to also draw for others. To say she was very talented is such an understatement of her ability. I watched her progress on a poster for one of our other coworkers – it was amazing. You can see her art at inqy.deviantart.com
She will be mourned by many – my thoughts and prayers are with her family.
