I weep as I write these words...a squirrel friend has passed.

Some of you have met my dear friends, Stan and Sharon, of Kempner, Texas, during our recent trips to Scarby and TRF, as well as at MDRF. They are two of our extended family, and we love them dearly. I just received the sad, sad news that Sharon passed away today.

Sharon was a lovely lady, with a gentle, loving, almost fae-like soul. She was an outstanding horse-woman, gardener, and ren-fest enthusiast. She was an army veteran. Her husband, Stan, is on active duty there in Texas, and has done numerous deployments to the Middle East. Sharon was one of our own, a squirrel friend and member of the Elfwine Clan. We will miss her...words fail me...

I humbly ask that you all offer prayers and meditations to your guiding spirits, who or whatever they may be, for Sharon and her family, especially her grieving husband. They were a couple who were destined for each other, and truely, dearly loved each other.

We don't know why these things happen. We shall rejoice at having Sharon as our family member, but the grieving shall take a long, long time.

...and tonight, there is a new, beautiful and VERY bright star in the sky...

I thank you all! Your thoughts mean the world to the family and to the Clan.

This Thanksgiving, we are rededicating ourselves to what is truely important in life, friends and family, especially friends who are family.

Among all her other attributes, I'll miss her laugh and smile the most...

Arrangements are being made there in Kempner, Texas. We are making our own travel plans, and will be wheels up soon.

Again, very humble thanks. You are all the best!!

P.S. Did you see that beautiful arrangement of Jupiter and Venus in close allignment in the western sky this evening??  Sharon's up there, being gorgeous again...

I'm so sorry Amras, way too young. 
I got to visit with you and Sharon at scarby a couple times.  I liked her very much.
