From the New York Times By TIMOTHY EGAN
PARKLAND, Wa. — The next time somebody mindlessly bashes a “federal
bureaucrat,” as if the term itself were a parasitic disease, remember
the bright young woman we said goodbye to here a few days ago: Margaret
Anderson, a park ranger in a flag-draped casket.
...The other point worth noting is about how selfless and valuable so many
public employees are — especially those who work the parks, forests,
deserts and wildlife refuges owned by every citizen. The hours are
torturous, and the rewards inconsistent.

Hats off to the Margaret Anderson’s memorial service.
