Milan and Linda, It is so good you can be with Georgiana. I've kept up with her, through you, for many years. She has been one of my "guiding" women over the years. I first met her at an early Guardian's Meetings. She along with other women in the group at that time gave me a way to see how it might be possible to be a part of this crazy group. I worked with her in the Town Meeting Post at Operations Centrum and as a part of the LENS crew. In addition to getting our "job" done keeping on track with TM work, we had plenty of time for coffee and conversation. I remember her telling of being on the El, at a late stage of pregnancy, during a crash and how she made it through in good shape. And Georgiana and George! What a pair. I laugh to myself remembering their high sprits.

Three parades 'fore the 11th of June.
by Jaime R Vergara 08 Jun '13

08 Jun '13

Three marched with great valor to life's terminus and we all felt the tag of grief in our being as the intimations of our own mortality chimed in. Georgianna McBurney, Barbara Alerding, and Tony Elizondo clearly added to who I am, so to lift their presence is to honor the breath of life they imparted that is still my privilege to breathe. The fourth great orchestra of care is still very much in our midst, and we all have stories to tell of Marge Philbrook when we encountered her; we all cheer for her for the great work she continues to perform for all of us in the archives. In the same manner as Georgianna, Barbara, and Tony, the Marge of my acquaintance is indelibly marked in my being as well. Grand parades for which the tip of the finger solemnly and respectfully hit the brow! j'aime la vie Yesterday, appreciate; tomorrow, anticipate; today, participate. In all, Celebrate!

Georgianna McBurney

Linda and I just got word from Georgianna's 24 hour nurse that the Hospice nurse just told her that Georgianna might be near the end of her journey. We are leaving now for Santa Monica to be with her and we believe her daughter Jana is also arranging to come tonight. We will try to let you know any time we have anything to report. The outpouring of responses and good wishes and stories about Georgianna have been heartwarming. We will try to read them to her if we have the chance.

Tony taught me a different style of pastoring and care. He and Ellery were grounded and always real for me.

Our dear friend, mentor and colleague Georgianna McBurney, of Malibu, California, suffered a stroke yesterday morning and is in hospital in Santa Monica in intensive care. In her doctor's words she has a very large "cranial bleed" which they are trying to control. We will send more information on her condition as soon as we get it Milan Hamilton aka Mellowmilan 80 North Center Street Redlands, CA 92373-8116 Phone: (909) 793-4482 Email: mellowmilan(a)verizon.net Blog: www.mellowmilan.blogspot.com

Marge, for you, celebrating your 85th birthday.
by Al Lingo 08 Jun '13

08 Jun '13

Marge, I have missed so many other significant birthday celebrations of our mutual friends and colleagues, and I regret these omissions and opportunities to remember the good that each of them has manifested in the course of their lives and commitment to the journey of those who have benefited each other as Order:Ecumenical sisters and brothers. You have in a very unassuming manner chosen to put your life into the more recent preservation of community in the Order at 4750 N. Sheridan Rd., and as well, deeply into the task of sorting, saving, recording its journey involving people coming and going, their lives lived and died, who as committed families, joined together in many geographies to accomplish the various programs and projects of the Order and Institutes. As a symbol of women and men, their families and children, you in your 85th year are a reminder of the gratitude we all have for our varied experience in our life together within a mission of loving God and serving the world. This birthday of yours and the sustained engagement of your family is a gift to celebrate! Charles Al Lingo clingojr(a)aol.com

Greetings to Marge
by Wilson Priscilla 07 Jun '13

07 Jun '13

Marge, I've loved all the stories and remembrances that have poured in for you. I just remember you always being there...with Phil and later without him. What I remember the most (because more recent in time) are your visits to Kansas City to see your dentist....Dallas Ziegenhorn. It has always been such a pleasure to have time to just sit and chat ... with many memories ... when you are here. I will be with you in spirit on Sunday...and assume I've given you a big hug and wishes for continued happiness and engagement. Love, Priscilla Priscilla H Wilson Prairie Village, KS Pris(a)TeamTechPress.com www.teamtechpress.com
