Nice Words From the Professor.

I received the following email from Christa's sculpture professor today:

Hello Marty,

I am so very sorry to hear of Christa's passing. She was such a
wonderful, talented person, I feel honored to have had the chance to
work with her. She exhibited a sense of grace and good cheer that
endeared her to absolutely everyone in the sculpture program. Please
accept my sincerest sympathies for your loss. I will, of course, be more
than happy to see that her work is finished according to your wishes.
Let me know when your schedule would permit a meeting and we can discuss
the details.

In sympathy,

Jim Calvin

Pretty cool don't you think. I will post more later.

Peace and Good Cheers,
Marty

Gerre-It is nice to hear from you. I want to thank you for the time you spent emailing Christa. Hopefully, over time, I can introduce you and everyone else to the spirit that stole my heart all those years ago at Sooner Park. I hope you will be regular reader.

Peace and Good Cheers,
Marty

Marty,
I'm so glad my mom forwarded your blog to me. I just spent some time reading your posts and shedding some tears.
There are no words, Marty. No words at all. I admire you both for your strength and your decision to chronicle your journey. I think it will be something you'll look back on frequently and be glad you wrote down.
I've been meaning to drop you a note, along with a contribution to Christa's memorial. Unfortunately, that trip by the post office never seems to happen for me. I'll get it there soon!
God bless, Marty,
Ree

Ree-I caught Christa reading your blog, and admiring your photography, on several occasions. Thanks for taking the time to read mine. I'm going to be adding Christa's blog to my links shortly if you would like to see what she had to say. I hope that you will check in regularly.
