“The journey into another human being’s soul is a far country to travel to.” — Attributed to a medieval mystic

Along with everyone else, I was shocked to learn the news of the deaths of fashion designer Kate Spade, and storyteller, foodie and world traveler, Anthony Bourdain. Within two days, two lives lost.
Because of their enormous talent and success, they became part of our culture, and many of us felt as though we knew them. May they be remembered for their contributions while with us, not for the way they left us.  Barbara
