Le-Fantome

It is with a great deal of sadness that I report the daughter of one of the founders of this group has passed. Michele, daughter of mamouse Linda, had a seizure last night and passed away. She was 33 years old. She used to post in this group as Lady Sorceress and also went under the name of mandrake. I shall remove my signatures for the day in respect. Thank you, Bill

My heartfelt Sympathy to Linda and Michele's friends here at YAH. I can only say how "wonderful" it was for her to be such a big part of starting YAH. I hope we can continue on with pride for Michele. God Bless You and My "Thoughts and Prayers" are with Family & Friends !
My Love To You All...trin

It's always a sad time when any loved one dies, but when the young ones go, I think we have a harder time understanding and accepting it. My heart goes out to this family and friends. God be with us all.---Barb

My heart
and then my soul
fills with sympathic pain,
but my mind
fails to speak the words
I know are there.

I am so sorry to hear this news. I can't imagine the shock and sadness that family and YAH friends must be feeling now. After visiting her web-site I see that she was a very sensitive, interesting and creative person. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. ...Marilyn




Do Not Stand at my Grave
-- author unknown --

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow;
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am sunlight on ripened grain;
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.


~ Blessed Be, Michele ~
