Sending Valentines to AR Members We Lost

By

Not to take away from - Just piggybacking off of Alan May's heartfelt recent post "InActive Rain Memory Lane," sending valentines up to those we lost and loved:

 

Myrl Jeffcoat 

Lottie Kendall 

Susan Haughton 

Joe Petrowsky 

Grant Schneider 

Noah Seidenberg 

John McCormack, CRS 

Missy Chalk 

Liz Wallace

Jason Sardi

Lou Ludwig

Russel Lewis

Karen Stone

Clint McKie

William Archarmbauh

Laurie Manning

Keith Furrow

Bill Gillhespy

Tom Branch

Robert Machado

Donald Urshalitz

Gary Thomas

and many, many more

 

May there never be a cross word spoken or written about anyone on ActiveRain. This platform was built on the wisdom of both inactive and active members and each life matters. Many of the names came from my AR remembrance post on 9/24/21. The spirit of the Rain lives on and helped many people. We can never take one day for granted. Let's continue to be grateful to those beautiful souls who have given us many reasons to learn, smile, laugh, and feel love. Let's continue to reflect and remember how these names and pages on our blog site touches many hearts and souls.

Hello Patricia - whether the quote is attributed to Dr Seuss or someone else, these words of wisdom seem to go along with my thoughts.  Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened.  Life teaches us many lessons.

Appropriate loving post for this special day.  Quite a few of the list I recognize and do miss as well.  Strange how we can feel a 'hole' from someone than we only knew thru words on an open platform.  As you say, man of those listed, and more, have done just that.  Enjoy the Holiday Weekend.  m

Patricia, I was just thinking about you today. I loved the contributions of many of those people you mentioned. Lottie Kendall's spreadsheets are still part of my business planning for the year and the week.

Lottie was very special. She reached out to many people here on ActiveRain and is missed very much.

Thank you, Patricia, for  your post.

Really sad  to look at that list.

People you knew, still know, you grow with, will remember. 

Most of us more or less 18 years with AR. 

Stay healthy dear friends. 

Truly yours E

Paddy Deighan MBA JD PhD - there is sadness when a member of AR passes on and very shocking when we did not know.

Thank you Patricia Feager. It was so thoughtful of you to remember, to post and for all of us to consider the impact of the loss in the AR community. The other day marti garaughty name was mentioned by Debe Maxwell, CRS and I thought there are living AR members we miss too.

From Marti's profile " Whether you sell real estate, write books or make your living with a paint brush, we're all in the same boat... trying to stand out from the crowd and to be heard above the noise."

Andrew Mooers | 207.532.6573 - I've been missing marti garaughty for a long time. Also, I have been keeping many of those souls listed in my prayers.

Thanks, Patricia, for this special post. 

I do miss the members who are no longer with us.

Let's treasure our fond memories.

Roy Kelley - We should never forget the lost souls and continue to remember their good work here on earth and on ActiveRain. We should definitely "treasure our fond memories," and never forget those who meant so much to helping to build quality blog posts on AR.

Patricia, your beautiful tribute to the ActiveRain members we've lost is deeply touching. Your thoughtful remembrance ensures their contributions and spirit continue to inspire us all. Thank you for honoring their memory and the positive impact they had on this community.

Dennis Neal - You gave me the chills for the first time on ActiveRain. My only thoughts were on the people we lost and not the impact I'd have on others. What I wrote was sincere and heartfelt in gratitude for all that I (we) received from some of the greatest writers on our blog site. 

How do I say thank you? By honoring them, we all give thanks.
