I like you (and I loved Coffeegrls story too) love people that stand just outside of my inner circle. The ladies in our mailroom, the cleaning people at the colleges I attended, the woman from Hallmark that sold me the "Twins" from Willow Tree Angels the day we brought the boys home from the NICU..she still asks about them and when we have them with us, she squeals and talks to them like they are her grandchildren. She makes my day. Have a great retirement Joel!!!!! You'll be missed! I loved this story. I like you (and I loved Coffeegrls story too) love people that stand just outside of my inner circle.

From the people at Daycare, to the postal workers down the road to the lady in the Hallmark store who sold me the "Twins" from Willow Tree on the day we brought them home from the NICU and still asks to see pics or them (Or them in person) when I walk into her store in the mall (how does she remember me?? :) I look to these people as places in my journey that are important to the destination even if I only visit them once in while.

It seemed like Anna was always there working the door, scanning our ID cards to let us in and for those of us who even went to breakfast regularly (a rarity I know) we got to know her pretty well. It brought a tear to my eye to hear of her passing, but I was incredibly glad that the college took the time to recognize such an important and wonderful person. She colored a big part of my college experience and she wasn't even a faculty member. But that's the point. It's not just the smartest, richest, and most powerful people who touch our lives and I'm grateful I had the chance to know her. Thanks for sharing your story! Sounds like he was a great man and it sounds like his retirement is well-deserved!
