[Oe List ...] Anne Slicker's Funeral

[Otto, Ken]

Joe and family,
Immaculate and gracious is how I remember Anne.  I was so addressed when
after so many years of being on the edge of our work, she was willing to
anwser the phone and open the mail at 4750 after Council '84.  Putting
her energy where it was needed.  A great spirit woman.  Carol Pierce is
moving to the building that Mary Laura and I purchased last year this
Saturday, we will pause to remember Anne.
Grace and Peace
Ken Otto

Dear Colleagues:

    Dear,dear, Anne, passed away last Monday afternoon, January 19th at
in the Nursing section at our residence in the Edgemere Retirement Home
in Dallas, Texas.  The cause was complications due to advanced
Parkinson's Disease.  She was surrounded and supported with love by our
family throughout her last hours.  A funeral service will be held at
Preston Hollow Presbyterian Church in Dallas this Saturday, January
24th, 2009, at 1 PM.

    As some of you know Anne had been declining in health for some years
now due to Parkinson's Disease.  It has been a long and courageous
battle for her particularly these last few months, and it is with
sadness and joy that I send this to you.  We mourn her body's death for
we were closely interwoven with its spirit's activity. We are joyful for
her life lived well and full -- and for all the gifts and blessings she
brought to me, our family, friends and colleagues in so many ways --
words cannot express.  And we are engulfed with peace knowing that her
release into the light of Being is carrying her divine life on its
eternal path.

    Please know that Anne felt close to so many of you, and that our
work and service together around the globe meant the gift of her life.
Grace & Peace in 1Love,
Joe Slicker
