Whatever happened to Denise her sad passing is a loss to her family, to her friends, to fellow forum members and to the Camino.
We walk with a childlike naivety. Full of expectation and wonder. Evolving daily. Our duty as parents is to allow this wonder, this growth, while teaching caution and providing protection. Denise has in some respect become a good parent to many future walkers. May they continue to walk in awe and wonder, with a little caution but with the same spirit as before. I hope that this forum will continue to support the memory of Denise and all other forum members who leave us during their Caminos.
Perhaps we could have a roll call thread? Would this be a good idea? Perhaps Ivar or one of the Moderators, busy as they are could create and update it without anyone else being able to comment? Would that be a way of remembering them along with reminding people of needing to be cautious without being contentious or alarmist?
What do people think? Please don't divert from the topic of this post to make it easier for Ivar to decide.
