Marion in New Zealand

Marion & her husband, Russell are fine but shell-shocked at the moment. The reports and pictures of the devastation are horrible, as most will have seen by now. They have no internet service at the moment but have power and they draw their water from their own well so they are able to operate without disturbance to their physical lives. They are having three friends come to stay from Christchurch whose homes are damaged. Marion said that many had become adjusted to the aftershocks . It is now 11 a.m. Wednesday morning in New Zealand. This earthquake, Marion said, is far worse in regard to the damage and loss of life than the major one a short while ago. She asked to share this with the board. They are fine but terribly, terribly upset and distraught for those who were involved directly in the quake.

Thank you, Rosey, for letting us know that Marion and her husband are keeping busy taking care of friends. Years ago I was able to help her by locating a quilt pattern for a sailing teddy bear that she needed for a new grandson and so I have been waiting to see some word of her on the Chat Page. Perhaps helping others will be "good medicine" for her in the weeks ahead, although having the ground shake under your feet must be absolutely dreadful.
