Memorial Service

Attended a memorial service this evening for "Big" Bob Tara, the Ski
Patrol Supervisor at Heavenly Ski Resort in South Lake Tahoe. Bob had
a heart attack last week after sitting down in a chair lift going up
the mountain. He was 58, a former linebacker with the Canadian
Football Leaque, and a huge man, both in stature and admiration. Ski
patrolers from many resorts were at the service, which started outside
with a flare ski by patrollers, then moved inside. Very emotional.
