I think I will now only begin to realize the vast number of people mom touched. I would like to start a section just to express the memories and teachings. If you would share your memories and teachings we would be greatful. I know some of us could write books on lessons learned and memories shared please feel free to post again and again as things come to mind.
We are blessed because we all knew her, now we will be blessed more to know each other because of her.

People are calling and emailing me wanting to help - I tell them we must give you time - Rev. Barry Keating at Maplewood has offered our church in Edmonds as a place for services - I know this is probably too far. I imagine Mary would want Rev. Irving Porter to be involved - he has the Church of Indian Fellowship in Puyallup - I'm not sure if he is back from Tempe yet. Let me know what I can do. Some thoughts follow
I am walking around in a kind of fog today unable to comprehend that Mary isn't a phone call away or email away - now I just have to keep remembering that I can talk to her in a mystical way - I'll know when I see an eagle she is near or see her in dreams and what if I see a wolf - that would definitely be my shapeshifted friend Mary - and what if I didn't fear the wolf - I am thankful she shared her life with me, that she never gave up on us white people - that she forgave us for our ignorance and just kept on giving us the same loving message that we are all connected, to not just each human, but to all creatures, rocks and trees. Who will inherit her talking feather? Those talking circles changed lives -
I will write more as it comes. Thank you for setting up a way for us to write our thoughts.
Love and Peace to you all, Carolynne Harris
I'm feeling a great sadness in my heart today. She was always a phone call away and I often called her when I needed to talk. She always had a positive attitude and outlook on life. There will be a great emptiness in our family without her. She has been at every event my girls ever had. Baby showers, birthdays, graduations, marriages, etc. She was there no matter what!! My thoughts and prayers to my cousins. I'm so proud to have been part of her family. Love, Janet
