Mon, 02 Aug 2004Recently, Flavia spent 10 weeks in Chile - mid-March through May - helping her step-father recover from hip-replacement surgery. I worked from Sun's Santiago office for 3 weeks in the middle of that period so we didn't have to spend so much time apart.
Flavia returned to the states the first week of June. The rest of the month was very pleasant with mild temperatures, afternoon thunderstorms, the farmer's market, the Utah Arts Festival, the SL Jazz Festival and working on our yard and enjoying reading and having dinners on our porch.
Then, on Sunday, July 18, after a drive in the mountains, she got a call from her brother, their father had died. Her cry was long and deep. The next afternoon Flavia was on a flight to Chile, arriving the following day and going straight to the funeral.
She is still in Santiago now, helping her mom adjust to a life without her partner of 40+ years. Here is Flavia with her mom and dad last April and May:
