Beautiful Tara, thank you. I love your statement about embracing it all - the lofty grandeur and the ugly realities - in honour of this truly remarkable human being.

Thank you, Tara, for a most endearing and eloquent piece. To share your memories while also talking about balancing today's disparate state of affairs takes skill. And you truly have that skill well honed.

With appreciation - Helen May

I just subscribed and am also purchasing your book. Well written and worthy of my full attention (scrolled through while at work). Cannot wait to fully read it.
