February 8th --the birthday of my cousin David.

David Fiske, a man of energy, ability, humor and of many unknown capacities, was born on Feb. 8, 1953, in Brooklyn, NY ( I believe that was the place). He died in 1976, in what was probably an accident, in Hardwick,VT., on Thanksgiving Day.
He was alone when he died, and it has become a QH tradition to try to reach out to as many people as possible to invite them to Thanksgiving (and Christmas, too-- a difficult time of year for people alone) in order to make sure no one feels left out.

Anyway-- all our love to you,David, in memory or in reality, if you are out there "somewhere."
