A number of us remember this remarkable woman in other locations, so I wanted to pass this on to our larger community. I met her at the Washington, DC House where she sojourned with us while working with the Church of the Brethren denominational headquarter on church curriculum. I recall her traveling montage that she set up in that little room to claim it as her space. Her positive energy and attitude was a gift she brought to every situation where I encountered her. I recall vaguely that her influence was helpful in negotiating with the Brethren on the 3444 property. Her marriage to Clarence Snelling in her later years, a professor at Illif School of Theology in Denver who also had had connection with EI, brought additional wisdom and support to the movement. Many of you may have met her at summer programs and councils. With care and celebration of a fully lived life of service, Lynda (and John)</div><div><br></div><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION"><div style="font-family:Calibri; font-size:11pt; text-align:left; color:black; BORDER-BOTTOM: medium none; BORDER-LEFT: medium none; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0in; PADDING-LEFT: 0in; PADDING-RIGHT: 0in; BORDER-TOP: #b5c4df 1pt solid; BORDER-RIGHT: medium none; PADDING-TOP: 3pt"><span style="font-weight:bold">From: </span> David & Burna Dunn <<a href="mailto:dmdunn1@gmail.com">dmdunn1@gmail.com</a>><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Date: </span> Thursday, February 18, 2016 at 11:10 PM<br><span style="font-weight:bold">To: </span> Catherine & Mark Welch <<a href="mailto:catherine@welchbox.com">catherine@welchbox.com</a>>, Ann Epps <<a href="mailto:annsepps@gmail.com">annsepps@gmail.com</a>>, Anne Neal <<a href="mailto:annecoach@still-waters.net">annecoach@still-waters.net</a>>, Bob Sample <<a href="mailto:bbsample@ix.netcom.com">bbsample@ix.netcom.com</a>>, Burna Dunn <<a href="mailto:bldunn1@gmail.com">bldunn1@gmail.com</a>>, C&K Whitney <<a href="mailto:cla9ken8@ecentral.com">cla9ken8@ecentral.com</a>>, Sherwood & Eunice Shankland <<a href="mailto:emshankland@comcast.net">emshankland@comcast.net</a>>, "Long.
