dying , but the city still finds ways to celebrate .
What a year we have shared . Also , what remarkable work you have done , despite the pandemic , despite our inability to associate with one another . Like Rieux and Tarrou , now we rightly enjoy low caseloads , vaccinations , and the taste of unfamiliar but sweet freedom . Yet , we recall the loss and devastation we have known and that continues today , unknown to us for generations . So , as Rieux says , our joy is “ always imperiled .” But we seize it anyway . Lastly , we turn back to the hard work of lawyering , to the oath we took when we were sworn in , and to this Bar Association — more mindful than ever how much we need one another .

Editor Liang Steps Down
After seven years as Co-Editor of The Atlanta Lawyer , Lisa Liang is retiring from the Editorial Board . Her contributions to the Board and the publication are too numerous to recount . From the perspective of the casual reader , the magazine appears as a seamless collection of articles and photographs highlighting events and topics relevant to the membership . Each edition is however the result of hours of brainstorming , discussion and editing , in order to present fresh topics and content . To that end , Lisa ’ s wisdom and contributions have been invaluable and the Board extends its greatest appreciation to her years of dedication and creativity .
Lisa , you will be sorely missed . The Editorial Board www . atlantabar . org THE ATLANTA LAWYER 5
