My friend Gerda died last night. She was at home with her family and friends. I have a Marzipanstollen (German Fruit Cake with Almond Paste filling) that I picked up, hoping to take by for a visit today. I'll save it for her memorial/celebration of life. Goodbye Gerda. Thank you for all of your sweet gifts, for sharing yourself, your love with me. Here are a few words from an email Gerda sent to me and others awhile before she died:
I will go soon "home", Please do not cry or be sad for me. The time is right here now for me . I will be more happier. So please be also happy for me."
I cry for myself Gerda, and I am happy for you.

I send you some soft hugs of comfort dear one...Bless you.
Thanks sweetie. And I'm good. Really good. I'm glad Gerda isn't suffering anymore and I'm sending her kids lots of soft hugs of comfort too. It's difficult losing a mommy--I can imagine. My time will come soon enough.
