Life certainly can throw a curveball.
Every so often I have the desire to look up old friends or coworkers. Sometimes I want to reconnect, but other times I just am curious about how their life is progressing.
Christy Tyson was a person I wanted to reconnect with, since it had been a couple of years since we last spoke.
Christy was one of those bosses who was more than a boss. She was a mentor, a friend, a person worth emulating. I had worked for her at the High Point Branch Library for a year back in 2004-2005. It was one of the best experiences of my life.
But my heart dropped like a rock after a quick search brought up the title “West Seattle Loses Another Treasure” and a Seattle Times Obituary page. I was too late.
Christy Tyson, you will be missed.
