I finished enough of my office redecorating to hang a few pictures, including one by an acquaintance of mine from an editing job a few years ago. Hanging her lovely watercolour made me wonder what she was up to and, as she has a name that is a little out of the ordinary, I looked her up first on Facebook. Imagine my dismay when I discovered, not her profile, but a group formed to honour her memory at a service in Toronto just over a month ago. Dear talented Laura, way younger than me, died from cancer. What a sad shock. I can’t do art like you did, Laura, but I promise to spend more time in my garden.
