So sorry to hear about Givio. I was in a round robin with her. Hugs and prayers to her family.

I will keep her family in my daily meditations.It is always sad to lose a board member. I think of many that we stop hearing from, and miss their interactions, and stories.

sewbizgirl.
I also lost a close friend in january of this year. It is very hard to believe that she is gone forever. This is the third good friend I have lost. in the last seven years.
I am so sorry for your loss and I pray her family will learn to cope with her passing. It is never easy, but you can learn to live with it.

I'm sorry for you too, Red. It's hard enough to develop a close friend, to lose them in death.

My mind is still not coping with the fact that if I write to Givio, she won't answer.

Bonnie, your love for Givio brings tears to my eyes. I thought the other day while sorting her bags of projects how would she have finished this one. Sometimes I feel like she is right over my shoulder guiding me. Her son is ready to get rid of her possessions but I am not. Can you post her crowning achievement so others can see her fine handiwork? Thanks.

Also, did you know that Ralph Waldo Emerson's quote was first made by King Solomon mid 10th century BC? Ecc 7:8 The end of a matter is better than the beginning and patience better than pride. (NIV)
