Late one night about 2am during the Summer'71 GRA   I was in Room A with Georgianna, Priscilla and Mary Warren walking  around a table coallating a document to be given out at breakfast. Somebody decide we should sing as we worked. And we sang out with whatever gusto you  can at 2am. Then we starting singing "Those who trust in the Lord....". When we ran out of verses , I came up with "Those who coallate at 2am.....". As  soon as I did, Georgianna threw a handful of paper at me.   Such affection comes to mind when I see her name.

How can I not join the singing?

…Georgianna you have inspired me and so many of us over the years… Thanks for your passion for participation; Thanks for your role in pushing the rise of the feminine as you embodied the revolution of new female leadership (in a very male-istic Order); Thanks for your fun, your levity, your bawdy humor and your captivating smile; Thanks for conversations at the bar after great facilitated events; Thanks for many jobs well-done and Thanks for a life of service so wonderfully lived. We have you placed in our meditative councils for the next 100 years... I hope for your healing, and I insist on your inner peace to carry you onward on a journey without end!

 

“I don’t know why we love you like we do…we just do.”

 

Blessing now and on the road ahead, we are standing on your strong shoulders…

In great appreciation and with much love, Sherwood and Eunice Shankland

Dear Milan and Linda,

 

I was in the North Shore Religious House when Georgianna and her husband were guardians. We met in their house many times. I learned from the Guardians what being a lawyer meant and that became my career. 

 

Please give my warm best wishes to Goergianna. She is a dear friend.

 

Herman

Dear Milan and Linda,

Thank you for the message about Georgianna - I, too have been mentored and befriended by this amazing lady.  I especially remember her when she came to Amarillo, Texas to do the Town Meeting - can you imagine in Amarillo in the mid 70's? 

Seems like our healing candle stay alight these day - it will surround Georgianna's name with it's light and warmth.

In community,

Nancy

"cranial bleed" which they are trying to control.  We will send more
