Kickass and missing Pat

Kickass, the doorstop dog, defers to the keeper as he–the keeper, struggles to accept the totally unexpected death of his lovely daughter Pat following a routine heart procedure.  The brutal finality of Pat’s death is somewhere off over the horizon and will be dealt with in due time.  Last night, there was a concert on the shores of Mazomanie’s Lake Marion.  Pat loved those community concerts and never missed one,  and her absence on this beautiful August evening was some of that “due time.”
