[Fists] WZ8C, Nancy Kott SK

[wf3w at juno.com]

I'd like to talk about Nancy, but first, I want to say a few words about
black licorice & Peeps.

Personally, I can't stand black licorice but Nancy LOVED it. She was
actually excited by the prospect of receiving some. Now, it just so
happens, I live near Stutz's, a store that makes all its own candies -
milk chocolate to, well, licorice. I tried to keep Nancy filled with the
stuff but, I must admit, I wasnt as faithful, to Nancy, as Nancy was to
licorice.  Or Peeps. Those crusty, marshmallow things that kids love to
get for Easter. Nancy adored them. I looked for Peeps - even at Stutz's -
but rarely found them. So I was half the candy-man I could have been. If
only I could have foreseen...

I could even say I helped Nancy, at Dayton, which I did the first time we
met. And Nancy's charming mother, I would like to add. Nancy was fun to
be around. She was giggly and forthright and DEVOTED to FISTS and the
betterment of FISTS. Nancy loved FISTS more than licorice AND Peeps. And
she proved it, over and over. Her like will not come again, in our
lifetimes.

As we grow older, our lives become more complex. It seems, to me,
horrifying, at best, to face that complexity alone. Nancy made the
complexity much less onerous. That we have known - dare I say loved? -
Nancy, makes the enduring challenge of life-at-its-most-complex, not as
overwhelmingly complex. And we can, but hope, we helped make Nancy's
travails immeasurably simpler as our FISTS passed in the RF. She would
want us to continue as she envisaged. She would need for us to continue,
daily, our efforts to make all our encounters - on air and off - simpler
for whomever we deal with. But most of all, if we get the chance to do
something for someone, Nancy would want FISTS to be first.

Goodbye Nancy, WZ8C. Experiencing you, in all your facets and guises, has
simply been a great joy.
