It's a LOVE Story.

Every once in a while a remarkable spirit touches, blesses and changes our lives. Tricia was such a spirit. Through several years of major surgeries and other medical interventions she repeatedly said how happy and grateful she was for everything in her life. After major surgery in December 2013, she worked hard to transcend the damage that was occurring to her body, and on this domain at least, this proved to be an unequal contest. She sent her bright spirit to join the other brilliant Angels while resting peacefully in our home. Skier, hiker, kayaker, deep thinker, gentle dog lover, astrologer, psychotherapist, artist, teacher, muse, friend, soul-sister, Godmother and incredible life partner, she has left a rich legacy of deep joy, humor, friendship, mentoring, empathy, service, love and intelligence.

Please share your tributes, stories, happy memories as well as your music or videos or pictures – and remember, more than anything, Trish would want you to smile and laugh when you think of her, even through our tears.

If you are interested in making a donation in memory of Tricia, we have arranged for you to do so here: https://brucetrail.org/donations/memorials. We hiked the Bruce Trail every day and I plan to place a memorial bench in her name on the Trail at a spot we named 'Biscuit Point' where Spirit, our beloved family member for 14 years, knew she would always receive a treat.
