For those of us fortunate enough to be at Twin Cities German Immersion School, Mary-Fred lives on in the richest and most joyous possible way.

To support Mary-Fred Bausman-Watkins and her family and in thanks for Caring Bridge which provided a beautiful place for us to get updates and to send support.

Liebe, liebe Mary-Fred Es gibt keine richtigen Worte, dir zu sagen wie traurig wir sind. Wir denken an dich und hoffen, all die Liebe, die dich umgibt, wird helfen

Gods Blessings on you Mary Fred. I am glad that John was able to be with you if only for a little while. Jack said tonight 'when I think of Mary Fred she is always smiling'. A wonderful way to be remembered! It's true you always had a beautiful smile.

Staying connected and providing support through contact with friends and family, admiring Mary-Fred's courage and generosity of love, making this world a better place all with grace.

Dear Mary Fred, Your friends on Steamboat Road are thinking of you and wishing you all the best modern medicine can offer. We have been thinking of you as Evelyn's Calamondin orange is thriving and waiting for me to try to emulate her amazing marmalade.

Very special thoughts! Lily

Sending love from your Carolina Kenworthy kith and kin.

Dearest Mary Fred, I weep as I write this note and yet give thanks for the privilege of knowing you and your family for so, so long. For now, I send you, Peter and your family my dearest love with prayers for acceptance and strength. xx Martha

Praying for strength for Mary Fred.
