[412-public-news] What a weekend! And, in other news, my dad died.

[Mark Rauterkus]

Hi All,

My dad, 89, "swam to the other side" on Sunday evening.

His obituary is now on this web page:

There is plenty to unpack with his blessed life with family and friends.
But, my wish is that we delay personal, face-to-face visits for a few
months to the summer. Then we can safely gather as this spiking pandemic is
in the rear-view mirror.

My mom and dad recently celebrated their 64th anniversary. Meanwhile, today
brings loving joy for a bonus anniversary. Today, 11-10, is the 30th
wedding anniversary with my wife, Catherine.

Above all, thank you Dad, for everything. Thanks too to my sisters. We were
all with him in the final days.

Peace to you and yours. Hope everyone can stay connected in these trying
times.
