Autumn reflection
Arturo Nahum
I lost my beloved Susan on the last day of Summer so Autumn has been a time of reflection for me as I selected photos for the memorial service to honor her and her life's work. In a sense, for me, Susan is the leaf that has fallen from the Tree of Life, still colorfully bright in all my memories of the good times we had together, but alone in her uniqueness as a Renaissance Woman. Of all the people I know, Susan came closest in self-actualization--whether it be her award-winning pen & inks and acrylic paintings, her service to the indigent community as Chair of the Floating Hospital board of trustees, her work as a healer of pain as Chief Physical Therapist at New York Hospital/Cornell Medical and in her private practice for 26 years, or her love of opera, drama, gourmet cooking, travel, books, films, history and travel. She was a wonderful person and loving wife. I loved her, and I miss her dearly as my personal Winter approaches. Thank you for all your tributes and kind words.
