There is no easy way to share with our friends the loss of four Wind River friends in the past two weeks. Each of these women, Annie Hartline, Annabelle Kong, Jan Markiewicz and Jane Landry, were remarkable women.
Dave and I are honored to have served these women during their cancer fight, to know their families, and to have called them friends.
Annie (picture left) came to our inaugural retreat in the fall of 2007. She sat by the creek and painted for hours. She left loving the way it made her feel so much she went home to Asheville and found herself a teacher and became a professional artist. Annabelle came to our second retreat in the spring of 2008. Only in her early 20's she fought hard to beat her situation so that she could in turn help others.
Jan and Jane attended the same retreat together. Jan worked tirelessly in her career so that she could improve the lives of children. And Jane taught those around her what it meant to live with Grace.
