[Oe List ...] Celebrating the life of Doris Hahn

[Sunny Walker]

Marsha and Shelley,
I sit in gratitude for the woman your mother was, for her mentoring me, her
deep and gentle wisdom and her guidance that kept me grounded and sane as I
struggled to fulfill assignments and live in service while feeling out of
my depth much of the time. A sainted presence I miss. May your own memories
carry you through the grief.
With love,  Sunny
