Laurie arrived just as Mary Elena, Susy, Colleen, Steve, Paco, and Tommy were leaving.
She and Erin went to El Camino HIgh School together. They were juniors when Laurie’s
mother died of a glioblastoma. They reunited in Davis where Laurie’s daughters go to
the same school as Paco.

As we were standing in the hallway saying goodbye to Laurie, the door bell rang, and it
was Clark’s youngest son, Craig, who had just flown in from Las Vegas. Erin and Craig
had not met before. Erin gave Craig and Clark each a Cadbury egg, then went off to
nap.

Clark had just been home for a little while after going out with Craig to see oldest son,
Jim, when my friend Adele stopped by with ice cream for Erin. Quite a busy day!
