I'm going to miss my dear friend and courtyard neighbor until I too pass into the next dimension. Rudy was so much fun to work with on our little landscape projects and potted plants for the courtyard every summer and other projects to make it an inviting and charming 'welcome' to our area of the condo association. Always a happy and pleasant greeting when we met and lots of coffee or wine chats in our digs over the years about our travel plans for the next season and things we enjoyed about each trip on return. Smiles and always an "I love you' when we parted kept the good vibes afloat between us. It will take a long time for me to process her departure into the next realm of her consciousness.
"The tide may erase our footsteps. But only for a moment, For having walked here once, we remain always."
Your 'buddy',
David
