A Thank you to Gloria

August 27, 2013

A dear friend of mine has passed on to her great reward.

You may not know her personally but you do know her through my coaching.

She was one of the first to volunteer when I needed to practice my new skills as a coach. She came to my house for 6 months and remarked to another friend that she noticed I got better over time.  

She was my "go to" person when I needed someone to help me with car service, or wanted company when I was going shopping or needed help driving 8 hours up to my cottage.  She was always game to help another - I wonder if she knew how much it meant to me? Did I ever tell her?

She was the "glue" that held our Monday night Supper Club together.  She loved the social aspect of getting together with people every week and offered her house freely when it wasn't convenient for others.  

When you read my e-book, you probably don't experience her support but it's there.  We went to Florida together to a small timeshare condo that we have on the Beach.  I wanted company on the trip but also wanted to get my e-book finished.  She said "sure" and off we went.
She walked the beach and made friends and met everyone by the pool while I sat inside writing most of the day.  She'd ask me how much I'd gotten done - she held my feet to the fire until I finished the book.  We celebrated over dinner.....she made me feel as thought I'd written a best seller instead of a give-away for my website.

Her legacy to me is her joy....her willingness to step out into the world and not have it all figured out....to be of service to others and to help them out in whatever capacity she could.

Oh dear friend...how I will miss you!
