It’s hard even to do these words to a wonderful friend. It is saying goodbye to a woman who truly inspired and encouraged and challenged me.
I meet Gaye in Winnipeg and directed and acted with her is so many wonderful amateur productions – I Remember Mama, Under Milkwood and we auditioned for the CBC doing scenes from A Lion in Winter and Othello.
She was always there pushing and dreaming and being creative. She served on the Board of Townhouse 9 Productions for several years.
And she was ALWAYS there for John and I. She was THE FIRST person to come and meet John when he moved to Winnipeg. She was always there when others challenged us about our orientation and we just HAD to have her as a witness for our vows in 1979.
It will be hard to renew them this year without her beaming and glowing smile.
Be at peace friend.
You are now the angel you always were.
Love ya and miss ya, now and always.
