I especially appreciated her kindness as a colleague and mentor in the English Department at Santa Rosa, where she mostly just laughed away any pettiness or ridiculousness any of us may have occasionally indulged in. She was generally too wise and too loving to lower herself to such shamelessly tedious nonsense.<br /><br />Ditto, her involvement in the Sonoma County poetry environs and the wonderful Russian River Writers' Guild she, and I suspect also DB (Yes, Maureen? Doug? Jayne? Jim?), founded. The 3-4 years that I had helping coordinate RRWG with Maureen and David, the three of us filling in for what Marianne had done for decades, were surely some of the most joyful of my 17 years in California. <br /><br />Always "wise," "warm," and fun loving. And always calm, beatific.<br /><br />Yeah, Marianne's spirit and person was BEATIFIC. And "Beat," too. And most definitely Beautiful. We all can be abundantly grateful for the beauty that she shared with us and gave us. I miss those years, I miss all of you there, I miss Marianne. I have the warmest, neatest memories of us all, though! They were such glorious, happy years!Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12130438006583799672noreply@blogger.com
