Dear Friends, and Loved Ones,
You may already know, but it is with deep sorrow that I am writing to tell
you that Sandra died on January 24, 2011.
I find myself both empty with deep loss, and filled to overflowing with
appreciation for the life we shared together.
You may view her obituary, printed today in the New York Times, at the

199903. We welcome you to share remembrances on the guest book there.
We received many prayers in her final hours and there is one that in
particular I believe she would say to all of us.
Do not stand at my grave and weep - I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glint on the snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you wake in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there. I did not die.
From Beret Griffith - a
Native American Prayer.

work world wide. The ICA has established a Sandra True Memorial Fund. In

We will be planning memorials in New York, Denver and Los Angeles. I will
