A Time Magazine story that reads, in part,
One laid-off worker at the Administration for Community Living is Fay Gordon, a single mother of two who is undergoing breast cancer treatment and who was the Region 9 Administrator. She helped coordinate disaster response for seniors and people with disabilities.
“We are the ones providing care and service so that people can live at home and in their community,” she says. ”The fact that any leadership would not value this lean, cost-effective service is heartbreaking.”
Fay was one of the bridesmaids in my wedding and is one of the bravest, most selfless people I've ever known. Which of course means she was abruptly fired by RFK Jr. on Tuesday. time.com/7273450/trum...

Whoa, Brad. This is so kind. This is such a nice note to see in my first few minutes ever on BlueSky. Thank you! (Also, to the surprise of no one, chatting with Grandma Kane at your wedding remains one of my all-time highlights of the 2010s ❤️)
