Today we got the news that our co-worker was declared brain dead. It hit our little family quite hard. When you work in a tiny office with less than 30 people in the whole place you get to know people better than you do when you work in a huge faceless office. I worked with Erma for three years. In that time I never knew her to be sad or angry. She was easy to work with, and I liked talking to her. Last year when TheGirl broke up with me she was there to listen, and didn't judge. I know we will all miss her. She was a good person.
