A Tragic Loss.

On Friday morning a small plane crashed near Wainwright. All five aboard perished. I knew personally, two of the people on that plane. One was a good friend of mine, the other a subtrade that I spoke to frequently.

I am still in shock over what happened and as more details of the crash come to light, the whole thing just seems all the more surreal in my mind. I've reached a point that I no longer want to know anymore than I do as to the circumstances of the crash as the scenes that play out in my mind are far too disturbing.

I am not looking forward to returning to work tomorrow as I have to review my files and determine the status and make difficult decisions as to how to deal with the loss of a colleague. I also have to prepare for the funeral of a friend, something that never gets easier no matter how many times you go through it.

All in all, March is definitely the month of the year that I dread above all others. A great many negative things have come to pass in this month over the years, not the least of which is the deaths of people near and dear to me.
