My Dear Friends, What
an amazing year and what a particularly amazing past several months these last
of 2006 have been! It almost spins my head when I look back on it. I wonder how
"I" did it, until of course I realize "I" didn't, the Divine did it THROUGH me!
(If anyone has any doubt of this, that it's the Divine working through me even
when I may not consciously know it, read "Of Avian and Human Hawks," our featured
article! LOL!) So many extraordinary things have happened it's hard to
know where to start. Literally thousands of dollars were raised
for animal charities through my appearances at fund- raising events. At such events,
I do mini animal communication workshops and/or animal communication sessions.
I am awed and so appreciative that some of you actually drove as much as 4 hours
to have just 10 minutes with me in person, to Voice and Sense your animals, and
to have your animals experience the healing grace and compassion that the Divine
chooses to flow through me. Wow! You are all just amazing. I am so blessed to
have people such as you who care so much for our animal friends'
well-being in my life! The "Charity Days" as I call them, are very exhausting
for me since I do non-stop readings all day long. However, I know I am making
a difference by bringing needed monies into the organizations. I also believe
I am making a huge spiritual contribution by demonstrating the Oneness, by deepening
the level of connection and the breadth of compassion between persons and their
animals, and by increasing the probability of more loving and more humane treatment
for our beloved animal friends. In the middle of the "Charity Days",
was the October workshop I gave on Increasing Practical Intuition at the
Annual Conference of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association. This
session was extremely successful, the Organizers told me it was the best attended
of all the sessions given at the event (see related article). Also extremely well
received was the "VIP Interview" on the Jonathan Casey Show (see related article).
I've done a few other in-person radio programs since then that were also a lot
of fun. Yet another success and a great deal of fun, was the taping
for the TV Program, The Voice, in Washington, DC. We're waiting for the airing
schedule. Hopefully they're remember to let me know! Cue for Laughter!
Yet another success and yet another great honor, I am the featured Animal
Communicator in the current issue of Species Link: The Journal of Interspecies
Telepathic Communication. I am very grateful to the extremely talented Editor,
Penelope Smith, for the extraordinary coverage she gave me in this prestigous
Journal which has been in continuous publication since 1990. Even more, I am grateful
beyond words that my daughter read the article and showed by her reaction that
for the first time she understood and even accepted my choice to leave a high-paying
corporate executive position to follow my heart and my passion to help animals
as an animal healer and communicator. An accomplishment of far-reaching
consequence is that the animals have completed the building of the Animals' Healing
Room here! (see related article on the FIRST session held in it!) We'll be speaking
more about this magical and extraordinary event in future E-Newsletters.
In the past few weeks, as my travel schedule for this year has completed,
I've spent some off-duty time doing woodworking and light carpentry, one of my
hobbies (see What Does an Off-Duty Animal Communicator Do?).
What's upcoming for this next quarter? Well, today, December 29th, is my birthday!
Will I be working today? Yes, I'm doing animal healing and communication sessions
all day and then going to dinner with an old friend tonight. After this, in this
next quarter, part of my intention includes finishing books I've been working
on for quite some time. It has been my custom now since 1990, to spend
time around New Year's consciously planning the energies I intend to bring forth
for the coming calendar year. I will do this again as this calendar year of 2006
draws to its close and 2007 begins. Perhaps you may wish to, too.
The higher purpose of this Newsletter is to provide a way for us to stay in touch,
with me sharing what's going on in this incredible, exciting and unique life I'm
living and the amazing animals, people and other beings who are sharing it with
me! I offer to each of you that as you read each issue you experience renewal
of your knowing that EACH ONE OF YOU is important in the greater scheme of things,
making a difference by virtue of who you are, learning, opening, sharing your
life, your love, your gifts. If you're receiving this Newsletter,
at some point you've given me your email address. If you wish to un-subscribe,
click on the link at the end. I hope you enjoy reading this and I hope you feel
to share this Newsletter with your loved ones and friends! Blessings,
Dr. Liz
| The
Animals' Healing Room is Finished! Pete is the first animal to have a session
in the room! |  |
|
Jess
(left) and Rebecca Todd are pictured along with Jess' dog Pete! They are the first
to have a communication session with Dr. Liz in the new Animals' Healing Room!
It
was a total surprise to Jess! Rebecca and Jess were driving with Pete, Jess'
French Bull Dog, when Rebecca surprised her sister with the news that she had
arranged an animal communication session with Dr. Liz as a birthday present!
It
may have all started on or about September 19, 2006, when Rebecca emailed me and
said: "My sister was disappointed when she was not able to see you when you
were at the Voorhees Woofstock. You were very busy that day. I was hoping to schedule
an individual session with you for her birthday gift. I was hoping we could make
the appointment around December 15th and weekends are best. Please let me know
your availability and your rates for communication. Thank you so much in advance."
Building
an Animals' Healing Room didn't exist as a conscious idea when Rebecca emailed
me. Yet within a few short days of Rebecca's email, animal energies beginning
with Marge Harasymuk's horse Cozon (more on this in a later story) came forth
and moved into action, marshalling a large number of humans to create a beautiful
room! Although completion was originally targeted for the end of October, construction,
painting, and sufficient furnishing actually finished on Jess' birthday, December
15th ... precisely on time for their December 16th session! Jess and
Rebecca were convinced that their Dad, who passed on when Jess was 13 and Rebecca
was 11, who loved animals, and who oversees and guides their lives, was instrumental
as a catalyst in helping to create and bring forth the Animals' Healing Room for
them and for Pete! It may be so, because I know that a male energy worked through
me to decorate the Room in the manner of a man's country estate sitting room but
I didn't recognize (and still don't) who the energy is! I
was so excited about Rebecca, Jess, and Pete being the first to have a session
in the room that I went outside to meet them at the curb when they arrived. They
were all very happy, too, when they heard the news about what a special day and
event this was, even beyond what they already knew! Upon entry, Pete
immediately greeted and was greeted by some of the no-longer- in-form animals
whose essence energies were present for the occasion. Tanuka Severino, Cozon Harasymuk,
Sherman Harasymuk, Jesse James Lanteigne, Fred Pinardo, Tasha Cornell, and Ginger
Hannigan greeted Pete and told him what to expect. Jess'
first question for Pete was, "Is he happy?" He replied that he is, yes,
very happy. He said he is recovering nicely from recent surgery, that his stitches
don't bother him. When we humans lapsed into talking about the decorations
in the new room, Pete interrupted and observed, "My humans decorate me."
Jess and Rebecca laughed, since they do dress him up in costumes. Jess
wanted to know how Pete felt about her boyfriend's dog, James. Pete said he likes
playing with James but James smells "off" to Pete. Rebecca and Jess explained
that James never stinks or is smelly so therefore they never need to give him
a bath. Pete is aware when Jess and Pete are at her boyfriend's house, that it's
really James' space. But Pete hastened to add, "I always get the front seat
in the car when we drive around." This is a big deal to Pete and in his mind
evens the score. Pete suddenly got tired of talking about James and changed the
subject to the bow they put on the back of his neck. "Yes, I put
a bow on him when we brought him home from surgery in November," Jess explained.
When Jess asked if Pete missed Jersey City, Pete got very still and
stared at me. He sent me a picture of dogs walking around, meeting and greeting
each other daily. "He misses all the dogs. He misses getting out
and talking with his friends. He misses all the smells from walking around, catching
up on his friends' lives by smelling the sidewalks and the bushes."
Pete then sent me the picture of a dog about his height, eye-level with him, a
white dog with spikey hair. "I really miss her," he said sadly.
I conveyed this picture and this message to Jess. "Tinker
Bell, that would be Tinker Bell, he really loved her, she was his best friend
there!" Jess exclaimed. Pete reacted to hearing Tinker Bell's name.
"Well, he really misses her," I said. Jess became sad. Pete
looked at me and asked me to handle her sadness, to make her happy again. He then
went to her and touched her, wanting her to know he was sorry that something he
had said had made her said. Jess shared that they were planning on moving
from Marlton to Collingswood. They would be living in a home with James.
Pete
was concerned about his space. Where would his place or space be, in a home that
was James' home? He said he'd been to the home before (Jess confirmed this) and
he was fine with it, but where would his space be? I
explained that they needed to make a space and a place especially for Pete. Jess
said she would. Pete would no longer be sleeping on Jess' bed since her boyfriend
would be in the bed now. Pete would be on the floor next to her bed. He needed
a bed-space with sides, Pete said, because he doesn't like drafts.
Pete
was also concerned about dogs as friends. James is okay, he explained, they play,
but it's not the same as Jersey City. "Collingswood
is a great place for dogs, very dog friendly, very social," I commented.
"There's a wonderful park there, where people walk their dogs. He'll be able to
find friends there. He'll love it there." Pete
was very obviously listening to every word I said. He became noticeably happier.
Jess and Rebecca then wanted to know if Pete was going to miss anything about
their Marlton home. "Yes, he's going to miss your Mom," I translated.
"Mom calls him Nick sometimes, Nick was our Dad's dog who died,"
Rebecca offered. "We worried he didn't like it. Mom didn't like him at
first." "Pete says to tell your Mom that she's not 'losing it'
when she calls him Nick and that it doesn't bother him, she doesn't do it all
the time, she actually only does it when it's actually Nick coming through and
borrowing Pete's body to say, 'Hi.' So she really is picking up on Nick's energy
in those moments," I translated. We all had a laugh about Rebecca and Jess
telling their Mom that Pete said to tell her she wasn't 'losing it.'
One
specific thing Pete likes about Jess and Rebecca is that they think in images
and the images are very clear. He says Jess lets him know what's going on and
what she's going to be doing through the images in her head and he likes that.
Everyone
had a delightful time on this very special day and this very special event!
Birthdays
are a wonderful occasion to buy Gift Certificates for animal communication sessions
with Dr. Liz for YOUR favorite person and his/her beloved animal friend!

| See
Doodle Run! |  |
A
few weeks ago, Jack and Carole H. finished the recommended series of Natural Path
Energy Therapy sessions for their golden retriever, Doodle. They presented me
this picture, a scene I would never otherwise have seen, Doodle running in the
field at their home! I was so happy I cried. Why? Because when Doodle
first came to me, she had a great deal of trouble walking, trouble focusing and
seeing, and even keeping her balance. Her original veterinary diagnosis included
neurological and skeletal damage along with brain damage. Her prognosis was not
good. Doodle was born with birth defects. Jack and Carole, whose hearts
are as big as New Jersey, decided to take her in. Determined to give Doodle the
best chance at a good life that they could, for as long as they could, they decided
to bring Doodle to me and to Dr. Russell Howe-Smith, a Cherry Hill, NJ, based
veterinarian who does hydro-therapy. Over the course of eight sessions
with me spread out over four month's time, we all worked together. Each energy
therapy session I facilitated included as many as 30 therapies in a variety of
energetic areas ranging from spiritual healing to electronic acupuncture to brain
wave balancing, DNA stimulation, restructuring and correction, muscle strengthening
and balancing, trauma cleansing, scalar balancing, aura cleansing, emotional balancing,
enzyme balancing, auto-color therapy, and optic therapies. Always I asked Doodle
what she was feeling and what she was aware of. This information led us to suggest
other practices and therapies from other energy healing modalities I've learned
and can teach, especially eye exercises, that Carole and Jack could do with and
for Doodle in between the energy balancing sessions with me. Doodle
is now doing wonderfully! I am very grateful to Jack and Carole for bringing me
such a delightfully heart-warming picture of Doodle running (are you reading
this, Jack and Carole? I hope so!!! )! What a sweet Christmas present!
The
sight of Doodle being so happy to see me, making sweet little happy-talk sounds,
and struggling so hard to navigate the few stairs I have to the area where I used
to do energy balancing sessions for animals, was a strong catalyst
for me to want another space for the Animals! I couldn't stand that here
she was, so happy to see me, AND that she had to struggle so hard to climb even
a few stairs!!! Something had to be done!!! The Animals heard me, stepped in,
and made the Animals' Healing Room happen! The Animals' Healing Room is now the
home of the spiritual healing-based NPET sessions facilitated through me.
NPET is a modality originated by Dr. Liz. NPET combines spiritual healing,
intuitive sensing and reading including animal communication and an extremely
comprehensive range of energy therapy and balancing services in one session.
If
you are interested in arranging an NPET combination spiritual healing, animal
communication and energy balancing therapy session, contact Dr. Liz! First sessions
take either 90 minutes or 120 minutes and cost either $225.00 or $300.00 Subsequent
sessions are usually one hour and cost $150.00, but what's indicated depends on
the situation. Sessions can be done in person or long distance.

| Dr.
Liz on the Jonathan P. Casey Show ... |  |
In September, Dr. Liz was the "VIP Interview" guest on the Jonathan
P. Casey show. A call-in radio show, JP Casey began with a question about what
animal communication really is. He shared a touching example from his own life
experience with a beloved animal of his own and asked if that was animal communication.
Dr. Liz immediately confirmed that it was not only animal communication but also
deep spiritual healing, that he because of his love for his animal, had instinctively
had the knowing to do. "All GREAT animal communication and spiritual
healing comes from the heart, JP," Dr. Liz observed, "Just as your example
so beautifully demonstrates." They talked about animal communication
for a few minutes more and then the boards lit up with callers. Most callers wanted
insight into their animals' behavior and/or health. One caller asked Dr. Liz about
the nature of the quantum universe and its relationship to holographic intelligence.
Dr. Liz happily responded and then elaborated, since this is an area where she's
quite knowledgeable: Dr. Liz once was an award-winning designer of advanced computer
architectures for IBM and has spent much of her life with quantum physicists and
mathematicians in her circle of closest friends. It was clear to all that one
caller was VERY surprised! Jonathan P. Casey is a well-loved icon in Philadelphia
music and radio entertainment. In many decades of service to the listening public,
JP has consistently brought sensitivity, interest, and a keen ability to connect
to his audience and his guests. Be happy on the journey, wherever it
takes you, from Dr. Liz! |
| Dr.
Liz is VERY well received at AHVMA! |  |
|
What
an honor! What an incredible group of dedicated people! Dr. Liz is pictured here
with Carvel Teikert, the visionary founder and Executive Director of the American
Holistic Veterinary Medicine Association (AHVMA) at their annual meeting in Louisville,
KY! In the fall of 2005, the AHVMA first contacted Dr. Liz inquiring
about her presenting at its 2006 annual conference. After a few conversations,
it became clear to Dr. Liz that the best service she could offer to Holistic Veterinarians,
was to facilitate a full length workshop on increasing Veterinary Intuition.
They
settled on the topic, "Increasing Practical Intuition in Busy Practice Environments."
Then they settled on the date, the first weekend in October, 2006. The venue would
be the beautiful Galt House on the Ohio River in Louisville, KY.
Beginning
Sunday morning at 8:00 am, approximately 80 veterinary health practitioners spent
3 hours experiencing Dr. Liz's multi-media presentation, opening and entraining
to higher levels of spirituality and intuition. When the workshop officially ended,
about 60 people stayed, not wanting to leave. So Dr. Liz continued to "open" and
"teach" for another hour! The
conference organizer later told Dr. Liz that her session was the best attended
of the entire event! Dr. Liz is the first animal communicator and spiritual healer
EVER invited to address the AHVMA on Increasing Practical Intuition! Dr. Liz thanks
the Holistic Veterinarians with whom she works for suggesting her as a Speaker.
Dr.
Liz told us she really loves being with Holistic Veterinarians. And they loved
her! She was invited to the AHVMA Council of Elders Conference! "The
holistic vets I met in Louisville are really interested in animal well-being at
the highest levels. They are constantly wanting to improve their skills and levels
of knowledge in holistic means that I know work. It's very heart-warming and I
am very grateful they exist," she added. |
| WHAT
DOES AN OFF-DUTY ANIMAL COMMUNICATOR DO? |  |
|
Dr. Liz is passionate about animal well-being and healing, that we all
know. She also loves to dance, that is something everyone who knows her or who
read the last newsletter knows. A passion only those closest to her know ... or
at least, until now! ... is, she loves light carpentry and wood-working!
"It started for me from when I was very young. I've always loved to work with
wood. In eighth grade at Welsh Valley Junior High School in Penn Valley, PA, it
was required that all girls take cooking and sewing and all boys take wood-shop
and metal-shop. I didn't want to take cooking and sewing since I already knew
how to do both. I wanted to take wood-shop. The school fought me on it. I lost
and had to take cooking and sewing. But I talked the shop teacher into letting
me take wood-shop during my study periods. He was wonderful. I learned how to
make a lot of wonderful things under his guidance. I am very grateful."
What Dr. Liz loves to do now, is create custom name shaker-peg clothing racks
for children. Always made from natural woods, sometimes she varnishes or stains
the pieces, and sometimes she colorfully paints and decorates them. "I
have pretty much everything I need: intention, imagination, a great mill work
store close by for woods, and equipment, including a scroll saw, circular saw,
drill, compound mitre saw, and table saw. I love the smell and feel of working
with wood. Shaping letters, sanding the wood, I love it." "I
only do them for children, and only as gifts. Each creation is different, very
different actually, since each child is different. I sense the child, and then
the design for that particular child's name and peg creation comes forth. It's
wonderful. I'm usually praying or singing sacred chants throughout the construction.
Often I'll have sacred pictures ... interestingly they change depending on the
child ...while I'm working on a particular piece. The children appreciate the
energy and aesthetics of the pieces and so do the parents."
For
those of you who are wondering, "Nimrath" is a Sanskrit name meaning "humility."
A gift for the young daughter of friends, the article pictured is the most recently
completed of these very special, custom, one-of-a-kind items Dr. Liz creates.

Of
Avian and Human Hawks | |
| |
Since
moving to Washington Township, NJ, in 2002, my life has been blessed with numerous
appearances of hawks. I thrill in the majesty of their soaring flight and am highly
respectful of their prowess. I notice the moment the woods behind my home become
suddenly quiet, knowing that the stilled voices of the wild birds gathering, feeding
or nesting there foretell the re-appearance of one or both of the two hawks who
frequently perch high in the branches of the tallest trees on my hill. Sometimes
the loud "erraawwwwwkkkkk" will strike terror in the smaller birds who
dive for much denser foliage. Sometimes the hawk's screech is a signal for the
smaller birds to instantly band together to relentlessly attack and peck at the
hawks until they leave. Always it is a scene of Nature's unfolding and worthy
of witness. An
intriguing and mystical bird of prey, in cultures across the planet the appearance
of hawks is variously interpreted as signifying healing, vision, rebirth, freedom,
and spirituality. Often a messenger of higher expressions of psychism and vision,
hawks are tied to archetypal forces teaching beauty and harmony in moderation.
For
me, hawks provide guidance, answer specific questions, and foretell events. I
very frequently will hold the thought of a question or issue and find my attention
immediately drawn upwards, where hawks high in the sky will answer by their number,
direction, line or manner of flight, or all of the above, the question I've formulated.
The
mystical presence of hawks in my life occurred full-force on Saturday, November
4th, 2006. On that day, I had scheduled a Blessing of the Animals followed by
animal communication sessions. The beneficiary was Lost and Found Dog Rescue,
whose base of operations is in Delaware, a neighboring state. I
knew something special was going to happen on that day as soon as I learned that
the venue was changed from Clayton, Delaware, to Bear, Delaware. Bear is my token
animal. When Bear shows up in my life, spiritual magic does, too. "Little Bear"
a.k.a. Tanuka, in form and out, has been my beloved teacher and companion for
a decade and a half. Having
never been to Bear, DE, I asked a handful of persons for travel advice. I also
consulted mapquest.com. Suggestions included Interstate Route 295 South or Interstate
Route 95 South. My home is in the middle of those two major routes, one being
15 minutes East of me and the other being 20 minutes West. Also at choice was
which major bridge to use to cross the Delaware River: the Commodore Barry Bridge
or the Delaware Memorial Bridge. On
the morning of November 4th, while packing my car for the journey, I was holding
the question of which Route to take. My attention was pulled strongly upward to
the sky. About 1-1/2 miles away, hawks were flying in the direction of Route 295.
"295
it is," I said out loud in acknowledgement, nodding affirmatively and appreciatively
in the hawks' direction. On
my journey now, I had the decision of which bridge to cross. As I approached the
exit to the Commodore Barry Bridge, a bridge I know far better than the Delaware
Memorial Bridge, I held the question, "Which bridge?" Immediately
I saw hawks flying about 1-1/2 miles south of me, in the direction of the Delaware
Memorial Bridge. "Delaware Memorial Bridge it is," I spoke out
loud, again nodding appreciatively and feeling a thrill of being so effectively
escorted. This was getting exciting. After crossing the Delaware
Memorial Bridge, I easily reached Route 1 South. My next decision was which exit
to take off of Route 1 South to reach Bear. I knew I was to head towards Delaware
City, all human advisors had agreed on that. As I found the first highway sign
for Delaware City, above the large green expressway sign and perfectly in my line
of sight, about 1-1/2 miles away, I saw hawks flying. I was totally thrilled.
The hawks were there for me. I knew that I was to head towards the hawks. I exited
at the ramp leading in their direction. When I reached the "T" intersection
at the end of the exit ramp, I looked up expectantly. No hawks! "Where
are my hawks?" I asked partly in surprise and partly as a command. "I need
my hawks! I need to know which way to go!" There were no hawks to
be seen. I floundered. I checked my mapquest directions which up to now I had
ignored and realized there was no way to correlate where I was with the mapquest
information. No correlation, no hawks. I felt to turn right (which I
later would learn was correct). I went about 100 yards, doubted myself, and turned
around. I was missing my hawk escort! I traveled for a mile and felt this was
wrong. I then remembered that I had the cell phone number of the organizer,
Marleen. Reaching her, I asked for directions. I described what I was seeing around
me. "I have no idea where you are," she said. She handed the
cell phone to someone else. "I just passed a Getty station,"
I volunteered to the new voice. "Oh, I know where you are. Turn right
at the Getty station. Do you see the store on your left?" "No,
there is no store here." "Oh, then I don't know where you are."
The phone was passed on again. And again. Later Marleen would
tell me, "You have NO idea how many people we passed that phone along to!"
"What do you see around you?" the next voice asked.
"I see an oil refinery tank," I responded. "An oil refinery
tank? I don't know where you are either." I heard a low rumble
of a male voice in the background. The phone was passed on again. "There's
an oil refinery tank on your left?" the male voice asked. "Yes,"
I replied. "Do you know where I am?" "Yes, Ma'am. Do
you now see a sign coming up on your left identifying the refinery as Valero?"
"Yes, I do!" I exclaimed delightedly. "The Valero Refinery!"
"Yes, Ma'am," the voice said. "Turn around. Go back to where you
left Route 1. Tell me when you get there." I did. "You
are now 1-1/2 miles from this location. Drive north on the current road. Go to
the next traffic-signal intersection. A gas station is on the opposing right.
Turn left. This location is 3/4 of a mile on the right." "Thank
you! Thank you so much!" "Yes, Ma'am," came the reply.
I marveled at the clarity, control, precision, and energy of service of the
voice. I was VERY grateful! I reached the location and began facilitating
the Blessing. When doing Blessings of the Animals, I ask people at one point to
share how animals have demonstrated the Grace and magic of our Sacred Universe
and/or have been great Teachers or Guides for them. As an example, I volunteered
my story of how the hawks had guided me so effectively and efficiently to the
"T" intersection, how I wailed, "Where are my hawks? I need my hawks!"
when I got to that intersection and there weren't any hawks, how I floundered
without them and had to call and finally be talked in. I mentioned that I had
been so convinced that the hawks would guide me completely there! Assembled
was a group of about 40 persons with perhaps 60 animals. As I said this, the group
who mostly all knew each other, looked around knowingly, eyes widened, some jaws
dropped. It was clear that something was totally understood by this group; and
that a group decision was immediately made that since we were in the middle of
the Blessing service, they would remain respectfully quiet. Most looked towards
one particular woman. I, too, was in the energy of the Blessing at that
point and felt the priority at that moment was that it be completed. I also knew
I would be told at the appropriate time what the group reaction was all about.
I finished the service and began the individual blessings, holding the
question of the very unusual reaction of those assembled at that one point in
the service. The lady third in the Blessings line, the one most had looked at,
volunteered an explanation to the unusual behavior I had witnessed.
"The man who guided you in is my husband. The hawks did bring you in,"
she said softly, "they brought you all the way here, but you didn't know it.
My husband is a Black Hawk Helicopter pilot!" Thrilling vibrations
of Grace in-filled my body. My jaw dropped open and then my face then formed a
huge smile. I shook along with my body's recognition of the strong presence of
Spirit. I was excited, elated, and awe- filled all at once. "This
is wonderful, delightful, thank you, thank you for telling me!" I exclaimed.
"Is he here now?" She shook her head no. "Can
you get him? I'd like to speak with him to acknowledge him and thank him personally."
A little while later, Brian Shepherd met me in the field behind
the animal communication barn. His personal body aura glowed with committed service
and spread out many yards wide as I approached him. I would later learn he has
been of service for over 26 years. We spoke. He put into my hand, his
golden-brass- colored, oval Black Hawk Sikorsky medal. "The hawks
did a hand off to me," he announced with the clear and simple grace of a mission
accomplished. |
