I have met many people in my canoeing endeavors. Not all have become close friends. But like stars in the sky they are people who will guide should I need them . I know they are there. One passed away yesterday and this I am sure has happened to you too. Or will happen. We can bluster and opine and agree and get angry but in the end all is the same.
I treasure and miss all my canoeing friends and acquaintances that have passed on. All have had wisdom to share. May I share with you some from Jean's obituary? She was a quiet compassionate paddler and I am so glad she was awarded the Quiet Water Society's Verlen Kruger Award in 2014
Here is her favorite quote and wish

""For the Monarch, that [life] cycle is measured in a known span of months. For ourselves, the measure is something else, the span of which we cannot know. But the thought is the same: when that intangible cycle has run its course it is a natural and no unhappy thing that a life comes to an end."
You can honor Jean's memory by sitting in a quiet spot in nature, free of distractions and let it speak to you
