For Mary Wismer

It is always a sad when you hear of someone passing, especially when that passing is of a friend. There are never enough right words to say as the hurt always goes too deep. Our hearts go out to her family whom we hold out arms to. Mary was loved by many not only for her poetry, but also as a person and the friendship that she gave. She is out of pain now and in God‘s loving arms forever more, but that does not distract the sorrow each and everyone of us feel. May you rest in peace dear sister and friend. 27 January 2008.
