Here's a very special link for everyone to visit. You can take a moment to remember and reminisce over those PiPsters who have passed on.

Very, very beautiful Nan. I have a request, but maybe it is already so:

Could the link to this 'Passion in Peace' site be permanently placed somewhere in the blue pages, where all members can find it?
Sometimes I just feel the urge to 'visit' those who are no longer there, just to look at them and remember all the good things about them and even the sad things. It would be like paying a visit to their grave, which no one of us actually can do, because we're shattered all over the world.

And it would give those, who didn't know them, an opportunity to easily acces their poetry, which is their legacy to us and the world.

Just a thought in this Dutchies head.

I adore the "Passions in Peace" page. You have done a wonderful job of remembering our loved ones. It was like a little walk down memory lane to see Wilfred, Lyra, Michael, Becky, Fagin ... and sweet Sy. Just wonderful. Im glad we have a place to go and pay our respects.

Thank you sooooo much Nan. You get a big {{{hug}}}

Best wishes and many more hugs where that came from,

It is beautifully done, and a wonderful gift to their family and the extended Pips family.

The link to Ron at netpoets didn't work for me,
while attempting to offer the name of paladin, but the email was rejected.

Nan,

I know the time and patience and unflagging dedication you have given over time, and this is just one more example of your loving heart.

Thank you so much, sweetheart. I've bookmarked this under Favorites.

"REMEMBER" is a fine example of the heart of PiPtalk. ~ Of the members who have passed and of our pip members present ~ like you and Ron for giving us this special place of peace.

An extremely emotional experience to see the faces, and read the bios, of our friends who are no longer with us.

When I went into the link in Sy's bio, I was so pleased to see the photos of the young Seymour and Isabel. What a handsome couple, they made. Their's is a love that has spanned decades ~ and will continue into Sy's beloved "forevermore".

Nan, yours and Ron's love and dedication to our poetic family, is very much appreciated.

Love & Eternal Light,

Linda

How ironic! I first saw this post today, the anniversary of Rebecca's death. Tears of joy and sorrow flowed.

How grateful I am for your loving kindness, words cannot express.

Thank you and God bless,

Hi Nan ... this is a wonderful tribute! I miss Lyra so much. She was such a wonderful friend and poetess.

And there's no one who can take the place of Sy. I will miss our morning tea sessions.

You've no idea how comfortable it is to have a place to go and reminisce, Nan. Thank you again for all of your work in pulling this together, and to Ron, for giving us the opportunity to meet and gather, both in virtual and in real time...PiP has been a blessing to me since June of 1999. And I don't even shake my head as to where the time has gone...for I've seen so much laughter, and wit, and such good times...all of which has made for some very fond memories.

This is a beautiful tribute and such a special treat for all of the Pip members to be able to go and enjoy.

I too, was going to submit Paladin, and am hoping that Kaceys message has been received by now.

Thank you so much!!

Nan, I did a double-take when I saw dear Marge's reply. None of us could have expected that just one short year later, our beloved Marge would be one of those whom we would be remembering.
Thank you for reposting this thread.

Along with Linda I really felt it when I saw that Marge had written on that page on January 27th. I had made a copy of the obituary from the Daytona News Journal this morning, at work, and then went to the page you so kindly set up for us to gain quick access and read her words in her violet ink..and her huglets. So touching. sincerely, latearrival

Actually, I can't include your picture unless you register as a remember-blog member. Then I can post it..

You know? As I went to each person now passed on that page, I remembered all the qualities they showed here. What a diverse group they were - artists, writer, teacher, and even a roller skate owner.

Each one had one special trait about them that I remember at times throughout the year, thank goodness! The archives here and things like this page is what can keep the spirit of the best of people going, so thank you Nan.

You'll find the link to the remember page at the top of each forum now.

Also - whoever has information about Paladin, could you email it to me? Thank you.
