My heart just aches – R.I.P Julie

Today, one of my best friends, lost his sweetheart to cancer. What a loss… and a sad day for all who knew her and Rick. Rick has always been my biggest advocate throughout my work career at Banta and beyond. Always cheering me onto greater heights and seeing this all unfold is just rotten. Hearing this news has just crushed me. I’m rarely like this but I had to share.

Makes you really think… how will you be remembered? Are you remembered for your faults or your good deeds?

How will you be remembered?

TommyLog: The Sun Still Shines @rosslarocco

I love you all.. The outpouring of emails, texts, DM’s and phone calls is just overwhelming. I can not help but have a smile on my face. People both internally and externally are stepping up and going to bat for Tommy. I guess the saying you reap what you sew is coming true as I’m having an outpouring of love like I have never seen before. Its truly amazing and I’m humbled to no end.

I have no idea where this is going but my time at HC Miller has been nothing but a blessing. To my HC Miller family and I call them family THANK YOU!

TommyLog – Remembering My Trip to Ground Zero

Tommy talks about his trip to Ground Zeros 6 weeks after the attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11. The sights, the smells, the reverence. The sight of all the workers stopping work as found remains are carried to a waiting ambulance. The smell of diesel fuel and welding torches as the steel is being cut and carted out of the site. Seeing all the photos along the fences of lost loved ones. Just overwhelming putting your hands around the scene.

TommyLog – Extreme Makover – Home Edition; Haters #emhewi

Tommy talks to all the cowardly people in the newspapers who hide behind their avatars and leave vile and venom filled comments regarding the Arboleda family who was selected as an Extreme Makeover Home edition recipient. These comments are just terrible. From wanting to know what they did to deserve this to pointing fingers at how big their family is and it’s their fault for having so many kids to why not spend the money on other more deserving families. One person even said “he has a masters why not get a better job?” Is this really what this is all about? NO!!! It’s about making a dream come true. It’s about the community and coming together. How amazing is this for the people and town of Neenah. The exposure is wonderful and the good will, over the top awesome! Why can’t we all just be thankful for this family? Why can’t we all just love serving and helping others in need? Why must we cut down the process and chastise the family?
Can’t we just be happy for them? Remember kids… if life was fair, none of us would be there. Never forget that.
