List members,

I am sorry to report that my lady wife, Elysant, has received news that her 
mother, Anne, passed on to the Summerland yesterday at noon while fixing a 
cup of tea. 

I met Anne during the blessing last month. She was a strong gentle woman who 
showed kindness and generosity to a fault. In the short period of time that I 
was able to be with her, her stories, smiles and wisdom became a part of my 
life that I will never forget. We became 'friends' in every sense of the 
word. Her obituary refers to Jean, myself, Jean's brother and his girlfriend 
as her 'children.' 

She was a woman who took great pride in her community through active 
involvement in a way seldom seen in the average person. Her love of her 
family, her native land and her community was an example to all who knew her 
for even the shortest period of time. But the truly wonderful thing about 
Anne was her love for Wales. She was a Welsh woman to the bone and was proud 
of both her heritage and history. 

She will be missed by many but most of all she will be missed by Jean and 
myself. :-(

Through the generosity of many wonderful people and much scraping, Elysant 
will be able to attend the funeral in Wales. Anyone sending any private 
messages to her should not expect a reply before this coming Sunday.
