Gwen, I think of you often. You were such an inspiration. Dance a little dance with my Larry in Heaven. Take care of each other until we can all dance together. Peace and love to your beautiful girls. No more pain.
Just wanted to wish you a happy birthday in Heaven, sweet Gwen.
My phone alerted me that other day that it was your birthday, and it made me smile, and get a little teary.
I feel like I can feel your sweet and playful energy, kind eyes, and loving smile when I bask in the beauty of the plants and blooming flowers that surround me. Your spirit still dances with us, until we meet again on that great dance floor in the sky.
Fly free, angel <3
Love,
Sarah - and the rest of your Jamily
Happy birthday Gwen. I hope you and TL celebrated. Thanks for letting me help care for you during your courageous battle. You were such an inspiration. You fought so hard. The last time we hiked Percy Warner Park you were on fire. Your determination amazed me. You had me in tears that last few hundred yards of the hike. I was so proud of you and at the same time so mad at the cancer that you were battling with.
My heart goes out to your family, especially your 3 beautiful daughters on this Memorial Day. May your smile stay with all you love until you meet them again.
Miss you dearly my friend.
I know you're missing your mother more than usual today. Gwen was not in the armed forces, but she was a force. Gwen and I shared common interests; friends, music, Memphis, running with the Hash. But, the thing that bonded me to her, was the love and pride in her three girls. Tori, Julia and Lydia, you are not forgotten.
It has been 2 1/2 months since we lost this grand woman, and I continue to think about her constantly. We were music friends. We both loved great music, in particular, Jam Band Music. As her fight for her life went on, we spoke much less, but we often texted. I record music as a hobby, and go out 5-6 times a week. I also stream most of the shows I record. I would sometimes text Gwen before a show. So many times she would let me know she would listen, many times during her drip therapy. I also dedicated so many of my recordings in her honor for most of the last year she was with us.
My heart goes out to her 3 daughters, whom I never had the chance to meet. I want you to know how much my friendship with your Mom meant to me. She was the best! Rest In Peace, and Jam On Gwen! One day, I would love to meet you girls. Feel free to send me a line at zmanatl@bellsouth.net
