Musings
The last page of Maclean's magazine (like a Canadian version of Time or Newsweek always features a recently deceased person, showcasing their life and who they were. I've always thought it was a lovely idea, just having ordinary people and showing some of the things they accomplished in life before they died.
Well, this week the featured person is Tom Walker, a cousin of mine (distant, I believe he was a first or second cousin of my grandmother) who was killed early this September while on the side of the road. He was trying to help someone who had lost control of their vehicle and crashed near his house when someone else lost control too, and hit him.
Samaritan killed at crash.
I kind of wish I'd gone to our last Walker Family Reunion. I think that in future years I need to try and go, because I've got a lot of really great family and I wish I'd known Tom. Funny how life happens.
