Map-less:
I once drove Melanie to a bus stop. It was pre-GPS, and we were without a map. It took circling around several times before we found the stop. We joked, “Let’s drive across country, without a map!”
Melanie offered a path toward Judaism, which in turn led me to Sam, Lexi and Max. I am grateful.
It is a challenge to navigate these dark times that threaten our world without Mel’s clear vision, her warmth, wit and humor.
Her memory is a blessing.
