Gifts

After a close friend of mine died two summers
ago, his brother bequeathed me several of his personal belongings, including
his Scout merit badge sash.
Fred had all 21 required badges for Eagle Scout,
which he became in the mid 1960's, with four to spare, judging by the final
count here.
Scouting is where we met back then, and where we
formed the most lasting of friendships even long after our youthful years in
the mountains together were but mere memories.
The sash remains a treasured gift.
