[nfbwatlk] A Tribute to Someone Else

[Mike Freeman]

                      A TRIBUTE TO SOMEONE ELSE
     We were saddened to learn recently of the death of one of our most 
valued acquaintances, Someone Else.  Someone's passing created a vacancy 
that will indeed be difficult to fill.
   Else was with us for many years and for every one of those years did 
far more than a normal person's share of work.  Whenever leadership was 
needed,
this wonderful person was looked to bring results. "Someone Else can 
work with that group." we all said.
   Whenever there was a job to do, one name was on every list -- Someone 
Else!
   And it was common knowledge that Someone Else was generous toward 
volunteer organizations.  If there was a financial need, everyone just 
assumed that
Someone Else would make up the difference.
  Were the truth known, we all expected far too much of
Someone Else. Now Someone Else is gone! We wonder what we are going to 
do.
  Someone Else left a model to follow, but we wonder---WHO is going to 
do all those things that Someone Else did?
