Lew's Logbook: How Soon We Forget

(It is interesting to ponder paths crossed. Enjoy Lew's post. ~ Tracy)

I had breakfast this week with two of my former fellow employees of Nissen Baking Company. I worked there for 32 years before retiring (the first time) 16 years ago.

We had a great time talking about the “good-ole-days” and all the people that we knew. I was amazed at how many names came up of people who I had to think hard about to remember.

It made me think more about the many people I have known through school, work, the Army, and churches over these many years — and that I probably don’t remember 20% of them.

It is an oddity of life that people come into our life for a time and then they’re gone. We mean to stay in touch but life just moves on. I hope I will see many of them in Heaven.
