Dear Beckman clan,
Blessings on the death of your adventurous, interesting, humorous, admirable mother. She and your dad were lifelong friends to my parents, starting when they were all young adults, living the Navy life. Your mom made me feel welcome, every time we visited your home. She had a hearty laugh, which helped me relax and enjoy our visits. Your childhood home was a comfortable place.
I wish I had gotten a chance to know her more deeply.
You are all very lucky, to have had such a creative, artistic mom.
Thinking of you, with empathy for the hard work of grief you are all engaged in,
Kim Wilbur
