I find myself thinking a lot about Marilyn lately, and missing her unique view of the world. I was fortunate enough to have her make me a beatiful shrug, which is perfect for this Fall weather. When I pulled it out, I was again amazed by the wonderful colors she had used, and the exquisite design and craftsmanship. I thought that I should somehow preserve it, and put it away. I just wanted to try it on once before I put it away again. When I pulled it on, I was wrapped in it's warmth and a flood of wonderful memories came back to me of a friend that I miss dearly. I couldn't bear to put it away, so I have chosen to wear the shrug and cherish the memories that it brings. You are always in my thoughts my friend.

My condolences are with the Mezer family. At such a sad occasion may happy memories fill your hearts. May it be comforting to remember that we can call on Almighty God and he will give us the needed strength to cope with any distresses.(Psalms 55:16)
