a letter to the Lost Valley community, October 12, 2004
To all of you, who have sent so much love and held me from so far away, thank you. I want to respond to each of you individually and do not have the energy right now. I know you understand. It has been incredible to receive so much support from you. Wow. I am so blessed.
The funeral was beautiful. One of the first things the preacher said was that he was reminded of the words of Jesus when he read the mission statement of the Lost Valley Educational Center and intentional community where Justin spent time this summer. Then he actually read the mission statement and I felt so loved and recognized.
