This is mostly for Shannon
A few other people know Dee.. so this will only really make sense to them. This is correspondence after I emailed her the news.
Kate,
This is devastating news! Thank you for letting me know. I told Tina Aven who also knew and loved Gretchen. She told me that Gretchen had really been getting her life together lately. Please stay in touch. I hope you realize that you're special, too.
Love,
Dee
and after I responded again...
Oh, Kate, I just can't believe it. What a lovely woman she was. Tina and I are also in shock. Please send my love to Shannon, too. I've had the music on DVD that she wanted. I got it just after New Years, but I didn't email you guys 'cuz I didn't want you to think that I was trying to push you to take classes. Now I wish I'd had more time with Gretchen and you. Let's not lose each other. Dee
I hope that is the last cry of the night. I am exhausted. I am probably gonna call in tomorrow. This is eating my vacation time.. but.. I just can't go in yet. I know I am letting work pile up.. and I know it will only be harder when I go back. But, if I went to work I would only be bursting into tears every few minutes.
A P.S. to Shannon-- When we find out what is going on memorial service or wake wise I will find a way to get you here. I need you. You need us. That is the end. You. Will. Be. Here. So.. just sit tight for now. We will make it work
