Please light a candle for her blazing wild flame.

Joanie McGowan decided to leave us on January 6, '05
She gave everything to share her love, get out the vote,
give us hope, build a community and show us the truth.

Blazing, Gorgeous, Brazen, Beatific Sunshine, that Joanie!

Shine On All Us Crazy Diamonds.

Please light a candle for Joanie and the rest of us.

Joanie

Eternal Flame
embrace the shame
embrace the sorrow
hug the humilation
consume the grief
set free the soul
of Dear Joanie -of all of us
who see and know
that we have so far to go
yet we have just here and now
one breath at a time
this ever present, ever fleeting moment.

Dear Joanie, Dear Shining Joanie,
shine and smile on us during our groping journey towards the shining light of knowing, through our dark fields of despair.

Saint Joan, you will be and are missed
and will always be here in our hearts, ever:
effusive
captivating
illuminating
emancipating
dear, dear Joanie.

Your spirit
The Spirit,
aahhhh.

Love All Ways - always!

Shine On All Us Crazy Diamonds.
