[pct-l] Grieving for a lost one

[Teresa Ellis]

Meadow Ed,

This is a wonderful message of consolation to all our PCT friends and to
those who have otherwise lost loved friends. You have a tender heart that
really shows in times like these. Thank you for sharing this with me and the
rest of the PCT community.  It seems like this has been another hard year
for PCTers in terms of personal loss.
