Hello community.
I know that many of you guys are in pain right now. A day has now passed since David fell on his bed and died. Wow what an amazing and special spirit he was. I have been thinking about David a lot today. I think of his art work of Hannah, his dress up costume of Martin, the photo of him when he was a model, the fascinating conversation I had with him about Frida Carlo and about his dog Andy. There are many other memories. I have also been thinking about my beautiful community in Sydney and the grief that all of you must be feeling. Urban Seed is praying for you. Jane I especially think of you. May God hold you. Last night I prayed that God would hold all of you and I promised God that as he held each of you I would hold Him.
I am back in Sydney tommorow night because I want to be with you in this time. It will be a time of lots of tears as we farewell David and the Enmore house as we know it. All I can say is lucky we have so much love for each other to sustain us.
peace and lots of hugs and kisses.
Hi Gem,
I tried to call you today to let you know that the celebration of David will be at 1:30 on Tuesday. I really hope that this works for you.
Thanks for thinking and praying and holding.
It’s so great that you can come. I actually think that it is those who can’t come….Jo, Keith, Stella and David’s family in the US that are really bereft right now and that we must hold the tightest.
To those especially I send my love tonight.
Shalom….may we all wherever we are find the way to completion in our relationship with this loving.whimsical,gracious and very handsome man!
Hey Gem, I’m glad you are going to Sydneyand hope you can stay till Tuesday for the celebration for David. Ikeep thinking about his house adn all his unusual bits he collected and arranged so lovingly over the years with very little money and even less space. His would have to be one of my most favourite houses. I loved sitting in heis back room and talking philosophy, politics, literature, theology, music, art… he was always really good to talk to. I am sad knowing there will be no more of those times.
you’re all in my prayers x
I am so sad to hear this news.
Thank you for this post Gem, it is good to at least know.
