Can someone send me Claire’s personal email address? I can reach her through Facebook messenger but that seems not ideal.LoveTerry--Sent from my iPhoneOn May 13, 2024, at 9:28 PM, David Sharpe <dpsharpeaustin@gmail.com> wrote:I just made a donation to Claire's website in honor of Lou Cassella. Admittedly, it's not a sizable amount, but it's big for me on a fixed income.I have first hand knowledge of what it means to be a caregiver. For 15+ years I was an in-home caregiver for my parents. Fortunately, not for both at the same time. After my father died of Alzeiheimers, a year later my mother needed caregiving after suffering a stroke that triggered vascular dementia. Let me just say: that type of long term caregiving is not for sissies.I close with a quote that I think is worth sharing, especially considering the quick, 1-2-3 punches to the gut we've all recently endured, beginning with the sudden loss of Bob Jones, the tornado destruction of the theater for the Mickee Faust Club, and now the unexpected loss of Lou.The quote from Tom Stoppard simply says: "Look at every exit as being an entrance somewhere else."Love,David Sharpe--On Mon, May 13, 2024 at 2:58 PM Clayton Stromberger <cstromberger@austin.utexas.edu> wrote:--I’ve been too stunned to find the words today – but you have all said it so beautifully. I had heard so much about Lou, the mysterious yoga teacher who had swept Claire off her feet and blazed all sorts of new trails with her in New Zealand, before meeting him at the 2015 reunion, and he was just the sweetest and most grounded guy, so humble and generous and appreciative of everything and everyone around him. It was radiantly clear that week, as Tarissa and others have said, that the two of them shared something truly special together – something deeper than just their far-flung adventures as travelers and their business ventures as leaders in the yoga field. Some kind of inner light, and toughness and courage too. Like Bruce, I just can’t conceive of this news as reality. We love you Claire -- and David you’re as great and true a friend as there ever was. Thanks for breaking this to us, Madge, I know that wasn’t easy.
