As an Aside
Two things:
- Andy, my friend and the guy who was my best man in Massachusetts at the ring ceremony passed the bar. I spoke to him today and he is, interestingly enough, attempting to find a job teaching – which I think is an amazing choice for him. He has, in the past, shared some directions he wants to go and this one seems to fit his personality and skill set extremely well. So… point is, congrats Andy on passing the bar and good luck on teaching.
- One of my oldest friends, Travis, finished Law School at Boston University some years ago. He married Becca and together they have something like four children. After Law School, Travis moved to California and, while looking for work, ended up joining the Air Force in the JAG corps (Judge Advocate General) as a lawyer. As a result of this, he was sent to Iraq. While in Iraq he was diagnosed with pericarditis, which is an inflammation of the lining of the cavity around the heart (word for word Becca). The outcome was that he was moved from Iraq to Germany and was sent home to recuperate. Apparently, the illness was serious, and has negated his being sent back to Iraq, but was caught and treated quickly enough that he will be fine. My prayers go out to Travis and his family.
That’s it. Thought my world (e.g. family and friends who know one or both of these people) needed to have this update.
