Dear family and friends of Annemarie,
Some of you may have already heard, but my grandmother Annemarie has passed
away this morning (1/18/13). She had a brief battle with pneumonia and
passed away peacefully at the hospital with Pete, Irene, and my sister Tina
by her side.
As you all know, she was a very special person and will live on in my heart
and memories for the rest of my days. She was very close to me and helped
to form my character with a sense of adventure, a positive
outlook, curiosity, openness, and a thirst for knowledge. She has a wide
web of family and good friends around the world, and I have included
everyone on this E-mail who seem pertinent, compiling addresses from E-mails
that she distributed to her family and friends with New Years wishes, among
other E-mails. Please forward this along as you see fit.
She would not have wanted for us to make a big fuss about her passing, we
believe. Information about gathering in the spring to celebrate her life
will be forthcoming.
The picture I have included was taken during a visit we had on 12/23/12 with
my wife, kids, and her. She was in fair health and strong mind, and we had
an excellent visit. Apologies for the size of the two smaller pics - one is
of her at her book signing with my sister.
Wishing you peace and happiness.
Love,
Tim Schomaker
