On Saturday, Wrongo and Ms. Right attended a memorial service in Greenwich, CT for a friend who had died several months ago. Due to Covid, his service was held this weekend, on a rainy, grey day. Bob Tomasson was a retired newspaperman who had a long career at the New York Times. He was old-school, and a reporter to his core.
The service at the North Greenwich Congregational Church was well-attended. Many spoke of his kindness and lack of ego in a world now filled with the largest possible egos. The church had this as its message today:

Bob was a very fine example of the good journalism Amanpour speaks about. As the pastor, Reverend Karen Halac ended the service, she read a quote by Henri Frederic Amiel:
”Life is short, and we have never too much time for gladdening the hearts of those who are traveling the dark journey with us. Oh, be swift to love, make haste to be kind.”
Make haste to be kind. What a wonderful concept for our heartless world. On to cartoons.
