Dear Friends:
I am sorry to inform you that I am stepping away for a while in order to share in the mourning over the loss of someone precious to this blog hostess.
As I won't be able to comment, and, as the rest of us are currently away, I ask that you please be patient with me during this sad time.
A dear, beloved, sweet and cheering close friend, more of a peacemaker than regular friend, did pass here recently.
It has come as a bit of a shock, despite her long illness.
Her heart was like wings to enfold the sore places, and her giving ways were ever clear of strings attached.
I loved her very much.
Peace to any who are mourning her loss this day, in particular her fine family. She leaves behind two daughters, one son, two grandchildren.
A finer soul you'll never meet.
May she be at peace now.
We will miss her.

Miss Peach/Karla: Ah...two peas in a pod.
I very much hope you do what I used to be able to do with our friend. I used to tell myself, "I am a sponge to soak up all the lovely wonders of friendship with this lovely person."
I believe it has helped sustain me throughout this first several days of knowing.
Bless you and you dear friend

Rose..xoxoxox..you know how I feel.
Ann: You've made me feel better already, through your gently reminding me it was okay to drop everything and just sit with the way I feel.
This is a painful week, made better by friends, and you are no exception.
