[Oe List ...] Sally Fenton

[Wendell Refior]

Colleagues -
   We in the ICA Global Archives Advisory Council rejoiced then and still
celebrate the many faithful hours, days and years that Sally worked on the
Archives and prodding us each year, or even quarterly to report the hours
of volunteer labor and material costs of building the Archives file system
and eventually a cataloging category list, later documented in an
electronic database. Sally worked with a calm and peace that defied
explanation and impressed us all.
   Thanks Sally for all you gave to us so generously.
To All:
  This poem from a Krista Tippett, On Being episode on Ambiguous Loss,
interviewing Pauline Boss,  The poem was written by the widow of a
celebrated technology pioneer who sailed off one day from the Pacific coast
and never returned.
Wendell

Donna Carnes wrote “Walk On.”
“You walk on
Still beside me,
Eyes shadowed in dusk;
You’re the
Lingering question
 At each day’s end.
 I have to laugh
At how
Open-ended you remain—
Still with me
After all these years
Of being lost.
 I carry you like
 My own personal
Time Machine,
As I put on my lipstick, smile,
And head out to
The party.”
