Mary, I loved you. I am writing this after you appeared in several recent dreams of mine. You , for many years, called me on my birthday. I missed it in recent years and always intended to track you down. Now, prompted by the dreams, I have done so. Mary, Gerard and my wife Averil were as close as friends can be, in Brooklyn in the 60s and 70s. We visited in Folsom years later and in CT perhaps10 years ago. Hi, to Chris and Angele... and to Rosemary Porter!!
Mary and I co-authered the newsletter for Brooklyn Friends School which both of our daughters, Elizabeth and Caroline attended. This was how I got to know Mary. In a way she was an example who inspired me to write poetry and fiction. But most of all I loved her humor and her sensitivity. It has been a very great priviledge to have known her.
I love you, Mary...your friend, Edi
Chris,
I am so sorry to hear about your mother. It's been many years since I have seen you, and I hope you are doing well.

Mimi always had a ready smile and a hug. Her love for Chris, Angele, and her two grandsons was always so easy to see. Her gentle spirit was such a delight. She was a generous, loving woman who will be missed. Please know that all of you are in my heart and prayers during this time of grief.
