Apology

Many years ago I was at the Burridge reunion just messing around and an older teenage girl came in and told us that we were combing our hair wrong. You see, we had long hair and we had just washed it and we were brushing it out. She told us that we needed to use a comb and begin at the bottom. I told her that was the dumbest thing I had ever heard. My memory is that I was not very kind to her at all. Quite a while later I somehow learned that she didn't mean to comb it from south to north-but from north to south only doing it a few inches at a time to not damage my hair. By the time I understood what she was trying to teach us that day I couldn't remember who she was so I could never apologize. All I remember is that she was a Lloyd AND that even though I was not nice to her she didn't do one thing in retaliation-she remained patient and kind. Well, it occured to me that I may be able to extend an apology by writing to the Burridge blog spot. Sooooo-if there is any remote chance that it was you or if you know who it was, please help me extend an apology to her. Jeena (435-760-5861).
