In Memory of Lee Wilson White

My dad was our Superman. His deep blue eyes and infectious laughter lit up any dark place. He traveled all over the country but in those eyes no matter who you were--you were important. In the midst of beeping machines, dark hospital corridors, and a diagnosis that we never could quite make sense of, he always managed to smile and laugh at my uncomfortable jokes. He fought an unforgiving disease not for the sake of his comfort--but so that he could laugh with us a little while longer. We would run to the moon for the sake of his memory--much less run a 5K.
