Goodbye, Donna.


I want to apologize for my absence from the blogosphere. Last week was hard for a lot of reasons, but most specifically because a former co-worker of mine was killed in a violent car crash. Much of last week was spent organizing and coordinating, as well as notifying people of her passing. She left behind a vibrant, beautiful, articulate teenage daughter and a church filled (standing room only) with people whose lives she touched. This morning was the funeral and though I wish I could write a bunch of catch-up posts, I'm beat. All I want to do is curl up with my cat until it's time for yoga. I will be back soon, I promise.

Anima eius et animae omnium fidelium defunctorum per Dei misericordiam requiescant in pace.

  1. I'm very sorry about your friend Katie. What a sad, life-altering tragedy. Life takes strange, painful and unexplained twists and turns.
    Take care.
    Jessie.

  4. Katie, I'm so sorry to hear about this. Death out of nowhere is always especially hard since it's completely unexpected. You've got our support - as much as we can give it from the written word. *hugs*

  11. Oh so sorry to hear about Donna. I lost my best friend in a violent car accident not quite two years ago. Not a day goes by that I don't miss him dearly.
