A Year of Growth - Katherine

[Guest guest]

Thank you so much for sharing with us Katherine. Today and all the

times in the past (and future) when you have selflessly opened up for

the benefit of all.

 

I recall when you were relatively new to the group and most perceived

you as a maternal nurturing soul reaching out to assist those you

could touch in any way. You still have that eternal substance to your

character though now with an underlying wisdom and confidence to carry

you forward.

 

We are blessed to be sharing the same path with you.

 

all my love, glen o.
