Happy birthday, to the one and only.
Dear Endicott,
In June 2016 your mother informed me of your passing. Her message was clear. “My son is gone. I’ll let you know when I can talk about it.” I was in the Ozarks at the time, celebrating my nephews wedding and my sister’s remission from Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. My entire family was there. Your mother’s news couldn’t have been more of a juxtaposition to the events that brought us there. Who knew that seven months later, the A.L.L. would be back and the depth of grief your family had experienced would now be known by mine.
Your mother and I can now talk about it.
The interesting thing is that during that June vacation, I was in the midst of leaving my then job and pursuing two other options. One was doing the same job I was then doing. It would be about the same pay, the same drive, and the same challenges. The other opportunity would be something totally new. Starting a new career in my early fifties. Fear was driving me to take the job I knew I could be good at.
However, your life ended up having a huge impression upon mine. Every time your mother or father and I met professionally, we would always share what our kids were doing. College. Exams. Driving. Dating. The most interesting stories at the time were always the ones that were the answer to my question, “How’s Endi?” Over time, while I never met you, I was able to learn a little bit about how you viewed life. All in. No holds barred. In reflecting over my career decisions, I realized I could play it safe or I could live it all in. No holds barred.
Because of you, I chose the new path…the new direction.
Webster’s defines impression as “a characteristic, trait, or feature resulting from some influence.” “Stamp.” “Imprint.” Life is amazing to me when I consider how someone I never met lived their life in a way that imprinted itself upon mine. Your perspective on life continues to live on, Endicott. Therefore, you live on…continuing to influence the rest of us to not hold back, to leave an impression and make a difference.
