Dear Mary Ann, Dom, Lisa, and Jason: Mrs. Rybacki touched me only through Dom's loving stories about her over the past several years. Through those stories it was clear what a fine lady she was, and you must all miss her greatly. Please accept my condolences and this small poem by Emily Dickinson in recognition of your loss. The bustle in a house The morning after death Is solemnest of industries Enacted upon earth, -- The sweeping up the heart, And putting love away We shall not want to use again Until eternity.
