To the family of John Neville Windham Harries his sister Ann and beloved friends..
John was a remarkable man who was a blessing and an inspiration to so many.
I met John on line in March 2002 when he was teaching in Oman
At the time I was in California and we planned to meet in Europe, where I am from
But regretfully our meeting did not happen.
Over the 14 years that followed John and I had few written exchanges, but his light never left me .
In December 2016, I was overjoyed with John suggestions to meet in Grand Falls
Sorrowfully, that meeting did not go through as well as many things unsaid.
John, your light will always be in my heart. Even though we did not meet on this earth you played a huge part in my life and always will.
Thank you for what you've taught me about: grief, longing, love and compassion.
Until the hand of God grands us to meet again:
"M'entends-tu t'appeler par-dela les oceans?"
