Dear Clara, you are on my mind

[melody]

So I wanted to send you a hug. I think of you all so often and the work you do here, the articles you write for other publications, and John, the work with the church, your children, grands. I just want to meet you face to face someday.

And, I guess I will be it here, there or in the air.
I love you sister, with the love of the Lord. Keep shinning your light for all to see.

with you in God's hands, Melody

[Clara Hinton]

Dear Melody,

I've been following all of your posts of the past few weeks, and your faith often amazes me. I remember the very first time we "met" --when you did a Profile on me and Silent Grief.

I still haven't given up the idea of a SG retreat.........I've now met a small group of women from the website, and I must say that our friendships are rich and deep. I want to meet you, too. I sure hope I don't have to wait until heaven to meet you, though. I'd like to get a real live "Melody hug" right now!

Thanks so much for thinking of me and my family. You remain close at heart always!

Love,
Clara
