Lost Friend
There was a train that derailed not far from where I live this week. The first thought was that it happened because of the extreme heat that we have been having. That caused the rails to buckle and the train went off the track. Then 28 cars full of coal got stuck on the bridge over the road below and the weight of 28 cars full of coal caused the bridge to collapse. The next day as the workers were cleaning up the mess, they spotted a car under the debris. My friend Zorine Lindner and her husband were in that car. By a quirk of fate, they happened to be under the bridge when it collapsed. Zorine worked for 25 years as a social worker for the school district where I worked. She impacted thousands of lives over the years. She was a terrific lady and will be missed.
