In Loving Memory
Dearest Family of Francine,
We miss our friend, our spiritual coach, the best coffee maker, the most prompt, the most willing to laugh, the smartest, the sly way she had of handling the unpopular, the brave and oh so tolerant, the magic she brought to every encounter, the fun and the food and the champagne to celebrate just about everything.
With that in mind, Bill, Susie and I are sharing a coup de champagne in honor of you, Francine. Til we meet again❤️❤️❤️

Cindy and Vali and Family,
I’m sending long thoughts and condolences to you on the loss of your wonderful Francine. Thank you for sharing her. (This didn’t get included in my other piece but I wanted to be sure you knew I’m thinking of you.)

Remembering Francine
Wonderful Francine—we talked for three hours at a time, the most searching and satisfying talks of my lifetime. We sat around making up titles for books we were going to write. My favorite was “Homemade Hand-Me-Downward.” She knew how to be whacky, how to play. She also knew how to celebrate, how to rejoice. And we talked about writing. She could write like nobody’s business. Here are a few lines from a piece she brought to one of our sessions:
“What still unknown will I miss when I am gone? I know....It is the joy of discovery along the way to a ‘where’ I didn’t know existed.”
In her absence, I’m learning a different thing about bereft. And grateful.
