Another birthday

Today my brother Roddy would have turned 32. Pics here are of his first b'day, back in 1975. As many readers of this blog already know, Roddy died in 2005 from diabetic ketoacidosis. He died on the first day of spring in the northern hemisphere (March 21). Our son Henry was born on first day of spring here in the southern hemisphere--a sure sign of rebirth in the world.

In other memorial news: This past weekend, Team Hot Rod raised over $5K for diabetes research in the JDRF Walk to Cure Diabetes in Manhattan. The second annual walk benefiting my brother's memorial fund was very very wet, but friends and family braved the downpour & my mom, at least, even enjoyed it.
