Loving Nick
Last night was the panel discussion about Nick Rudd and his influence here in C-U. It was wonderful to see the faces of those on the panel and the names of those that were there listening. It was emotional and I sniffed through it, wiping my eyes constantly. Seeing others tear up and Steve Scariano lowering his head in grief was gutting but also healing in a sense. Seeing the depth of love for Nick from others was comforting.
I will always miss him.
I have no other words today. I must admit to feeling utterly exhausted. Last night was wonderful but draining.
Thanks to Gina and Nick Rudd Music, Scott Schwartz and the Sousa Archives and Joel Spencer at the Urbana Free Library.
