requiem in pace

[xela]

I went to check my work mail, and found a notice that a co-worker had died. Fell down a flight of stairs at a restaurant and suffered fatal brain damage.

Shudder.

She wasn't someone I knew well. But someone who always had a smile for me when we'd pass in the hall. I'm not sure we ever exchanged a word beyond that. I don't know what I believe about death, but if she is somewhere: Diane, I wish you peace, and send you a smile.
