Carol
Pierce was my neighbor
at 4750 when I moved in about 2004. I had very little and especially did not
have a TV. Carol would invite me over to chat and watch sports which were
really important to me. One day she just gave me a key to her room, She said
Dick, “I go to bed early and many of the sports are late, so just come in at
any time”. I was amazed
Sort of how I remember Carol:
a great sense of sharing life rather than trying to hoard it. My daughters just
came back from Burning Man (let’s call it a retreat center) and they sent me
the Center’s 5 principles. The one I liked and resonated as Carol’s gift is
“Expect more from strangers”. Carol expected a lot not only from strangers but
from her friends
Her life was deeply
appreciated.
