Remembering Lynn Pietrouchie, My Friend
And My Fair Housing Mentor

Oct. 15, 2007
Categorized in: Personal Musings

This year has been a time of many changes in my personal and professional life. The happy changes include a move to Tucson, Arizona. In June I lost one of my dearest friends, Lynn Pietrouchie. Lynn was a REALTOR and a colleague for more than 20 years. She fought a gallant battle against brain cancer and we said our final farewell in late June. I still get the urge to pick up the phone to share the news of the day. She would love Tucson.

Lynn worked for the Bethlehem Housing Authority for many, many years. She headed the Section 8 housing program and kept me educated and up to date on Fair Housing and landlord/tenant issues. I miss her a lot. I want to pick up the phone and call her every time we publish an article in RealTown that educates us about Fair Housing. Like today. She would LOVE these articles. She would really like RealTown.

That's the attitude. Never forget your friend! I didn't know her but I can see she was an inspiration to you and others.

I love Arizona. Next week I will be visiting Scottsdale (Old Town), Prescott, Jerome, and my FAVORITE Sedona.

John Cornish, a REALTOR in Bethlehem, PA, is a former colleague. He also counted Lynn as a friend. He shared this with me today on LVARMemberTalk, a Listserv operated by the Lehigh Valley (PA) Assn. of REALTORS.

Fran - A appropriate poem a friend shared with me.
            THE CLOCK OF LIFE
The Clock of Life is wound but once.
      And no man hath the power
To say just when the hands will stop
      At late or early day.
 
NOW is the only time you own:
      Live, Love, Work... With a will.
Have no faith in tomorrow,
      For then, the hands may be still.
