I am writing my own obituary knowing my time on this earth is almost over. Good bye to: family, wonderful friends of my youth and grown-up years, friends and board members of the Anderson Young Ballet Theatre, the past Mayors’ Arts and Culture Commission of Anderson, the Muncie Light Horse Club, the Indiana Trail Riders Association, and fellow seekers of truth from Church, Yoga, and Meditation Groups. A special thanks to the kind and caring medical staff at The Cancer Center of America (Zion, IL), and St. Vincent’s, Anderson, Hospice, for a smooth Transition and my husband Ken, I will miss you all.

There will be no formal memorial service, “Remember me in your own way and don’t fear death; our souls are eternal and we are all blessed”, Lynn Ryden.
