Dear Marie and Family: The sadness of losing someone you love can be overwhelming even as we are grateful they are at peace and not suffering any longer. Both Gilles and I are so sorry for your loss. Even when expected, death is such a shock to one's heart and soul. As your family goes through these raw and tender days of remembering and celebrating Jean's life know that there are many of us who are thinking of you and holding you in prayer. In meeting Jean I saw the deep love she had for her husband and family, her wit and intelligence. And her beauty. I will remember her gracious hospitality, her welcoming me into her home, how both the Thompsons made the trek into Ottawa to come to a reading in a hot and crowded store. Jean was pushing her walker, wearing her red suit and looked so elegant. She gave me such a warm and genuine, loving hug. How wonderful that was--- to see familiar faces in a crowd of strangers when I was far away from home. Like having family there. Making that effort and taking the time was such a generous thing to do and meant the world to me I feel blessed to have known her and and especially grateful--- we cherish deeply the friendship we have with her amazing daughter Marie. Much, much love to the Thompson clan.
