She was one of the few people I could talk to about politics, and we were DU buddies.
She had moved several years ago, but we stayed in touch. She told me she was terminally ill in Feb and then she stopped taking my calls and answering her texts in May. I spoke with her daughter in late May and she told me Ann was in palliative care. My heart is broken to know she is gone. But she knew what her fate was and told me she was OK with it, she had lived a good life. She lost her beloved dog Boogie within the past year, so I know they're having a wonderful reunion.

Rest in peace my friend.

and letting us know

Friends are rare to find. Peace to u.

crossed over. But I believe that she was healed and free of pain the instant she crossed, and that you will see her again.

She posted some of her botanical watercolors here years ago. Unfortunately her Photobucket account is gone, but Steerpike reposted one that's still here, in this thread - https://www.democraticunderground.com/1028268 - where Skinner had also given her artwork a thumbs-up.

Picture her healthy and young again, surrounded by the beautiful plants she loved. I believe that is her reality now.


And thanks, SCE, for letting us know, and for keeping her daughter in touch with DU this way.

Thanks for sharing.

May she RIP.

R.I.P. second window.

May the love and memories created in life echo into the hereafter and in the hearts and minds of those who knew you best.

Love and condolences to all her friends and family.

She's one of the few DUers I've known IRL but I didn't know secondwind was her mom.

Rest in peace, secondwind.

Condolences to second wind's family.

very sad, indeed.

Condolences to her daughter and friends.

Love to Secondwind’s family and friends.💗💗🙏💐

She will be missed. My sympathy to her loved ones.

on the loss of their beloved mother. Rest In Peace, secondwind.

recognize her DU name, I definitely will miss her Democratic vote. We can best make a pledge to engage at least two more Democratic voters, in memorium, as we race toward those primaries. May her memory bring blessings of peace and tranquility. In remembrance of this DU member:

My deepest condolences to MaltaBlue and all of secondwind's family, as well as those who knew and loved her. May your memories of secondwind provide you with peace and comfort.

Sincere sympathy to her friends and family.

I'd guess we all share it.

Thanks for letting us know.
