Mother Nature is clearly having as hard a time as I am. Losing one of her beloved daughters has sent her into a rage, sending torrential rain and wind gusts tearing through porches and trees and snapping branches in two the day after Annie died. The next day she blanketed the ground with snow. Today we had an earthquake. And it’s cold for April, because the world lost one of its most loving and warmest humans. It will always be a little colder here for me now.
Oh, dear Cindy. Please accept my deepest heartfelt condolences and my profound apologies for disappearing from social media at a time when you needed all your people most. When I last checked in with you and Annie, things were on an upswing and I felt okay about looking away. That was wrong. Now I hold you, Luca, Tony, your family and community in virtual arms. Your tribute to dear Annie is powerful and moving. Thank you for giving us the gift of knowing her through you. Sending love and strength. XOXOXO
I am so sorry, Cindy. I know there are no words that can help heal the pain for the loss of such a special child, taken too soon. My deepest condolences go out to you and your family. Your beautiful tribute brought tears to my eyes.
The brightest candles burn too fast. The world isn't organized around fairness; it is too wild and destructive and precious and beautiful. Your loss is unimaginable. Love to you and all who love Annie.
I wish I had words to help heal the pain for all of you. But I will just say I love you so much, Cindy. What an amazing woman you raised her to be. So much of what you wrote about Annie, reminds me of you. Please know always here for you. Call day or night and I’ll do whatever I can to support you. Sending all my love 🩷 Jenn
I don't know what to say. I showed up at Erma yesterday looking for you since I saw your name on the guest list. You were also on a video played last evening during our first dinner and it was awesome. I didn't know Annie had passed of course. Been thinking about both of you a lot. I'm just so very sorry. There's no bigger loss. She was so beautiful inside and out. I know how very proud you are. Please know that even though I don't know you well, I am hurting for you. Will keep you in thought and prayer tomorrow. Hope you can come back to Erma someday.

So sorry, Cindy. It’s a long slow road, but writing is one sure way thru.
