Meant to add how much I appreciated hearing your voice yesterday and knowing that you also had been through this process gave me new courage. How we do need to be reminded of those things from time to time, when the ³Woe is me¹s² tend to accumulate. I thought you might want to pass this and other messages that I sent you on to Clair. I know that the Shanklands are on the OE list and I thought David Dunn was also, though I haven¹t heard his ³voice² in some time. Let me know if you need further help. I just thought it good that all info come from Denver.

Her expertise with curriculum spread widely, and as a current member of the Reformed Church in America was used by our denomination as well.

From our Denver colleagues, I have received word of the passing of colleague Shirley Heckman Snelling. 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)

David spent some time with Clarence and other family members yesterday morning as they were thinking through arrangements for a service. Tentatively, the service may be held at Park Hill United Methodist at 1:00 on February 28, however we are awaiting confirmation. Claire Nord, Clarence¹s daughter has been very present to Clarence and Shirley over the past year+ as they settled into Brookdale Assisted Living and worked through getting an appropriate level of care. I think of Shirley in her colorful African garb . . . her great appreciation for her colleagues . . . her love of having a challenging assignment . . . her delight at being Clarence¹s bride in ³Phase IV². Grace and Peace, Catherine
Hi all.
Clarence¹s daughter Clare has just confirmed the time and place for Shirley¹s memorial service:
"The service will be on March 17th at 7pm at Park Hill United Methodist. If you could pass the word that would be great.²
Take care.
David
