julia blackhawk left the earth via the 35w bridge...with her she took her beautiful laugh...one her parents described such...and when she laughed it made your heart happy
i find it rare that folks point out such a characteristic when paying tribute to a lost loved one via media...also find it heartwarming
and so i reflect on a unique laugh
my own daughter has a distinctive laugh...an abrasive abruptness that storms forth like rushing water then bounces wildly off stones in a meandering creek
it got her in trouble in school...an oral report by a friend with the words "the aliens have landed" conjured up visions of spacemen... peals of brook babbling laughter that no damn could contain sent her for a stint in the hall...but the laugh continued and was fortified by the hallows of the empty space...the laugh flooded many classrooms that day
to the folks of julia.... i am so sorry you lost a daughter...i am so grateful you recognized the loss of a laugh
