Our friend and neighbor Susan Power wrote the most amazing note to us:
As the honorable Tom Fineberg enters the Spirit World, you will find on one side of Tom's path, all past great chess players waiting with boards in hand, hoping for the "first" game to try and "beat Tom," while on the other side of his path, his ancestors smile, knowing their "Tom is home"! And what does your father say? "Bring 'em on, I'm ready for a game!"His former student, Dr. Daaim Shabazz, wrote a magnificent column on his blog, The Chess Drum.
That's all I can write for now. So much to do. Steve and I will be moving downstairs to care for Mom and selling our unit, gotta clear out all our stuff. . .
A wise woman once told me, "A woman's power lies in her ability to create space." I am about to put that to the test.
