Wijbe, thank you for posting the family's beautiful thank you card.
And thank you for your exquisite album of Dolores photos with all the wonderful captions, names, dates and places.

Thank you Wijbe and Willy for this effort.

Wijbe and Willy,

This is such a beautiful, lovely montage with music chosen so carefully. So perfect a tribute to Dolores. Thank you for bringing this to us and to all who contributed the photos. I know she will be sorely missed in this community.

Warmest regards,
Mary

This wonderful Gallery of photos brings back so many good memories... From the early Intensity meetings in Amsterdam in late 1990's, up to last year's Hydra meetup.
Thank you Wijbe and Willy for creating this Gallery for us!

Thank you, Willy and Wijbe. Your beautiful photo set made me sad but warmed my heart at the same time.
Here is a picture as my good-bye to Dolores. Hydra, 2011.

Thank you Wijbe and Willy and all those who contributed photos.

Such wonderful happy, carefree memories of a life lived with friends. Those memories will remain as they are now forever.
The two soulful songs were a fitting choice to end one journey and begin another.

This montage of Dolores was moving to watch, Wijbe. If I'd known you were putting it together, I would have found and somehow sent some of my own, yet this is every bit as beautiful without them. Thank you to all of you who contributed your own.

Whether she knew their language or not, Dolores connected with people, and these photos show that truth. Your choice of songs was perfect and how you blended the photos, as well, Wijbe. Thank you for this wonderful tribute to our wonderful Dolores. As well as to us, this will be so precious to her family.

Thank you Willy and Wybe for that wonderful tribute to Dolores and I am sure her family will really appreciate it very much.

That is an amazing testament to her Ken, that she never wrote one post on here and yet everyone that met her loved her.

Many thanks Wijbe and Willy -- wonderful and very moving tribute. That smile could light up a room!

Wijbe and Willy, thank you so much for taking the trouble to compile such a wonderful tribute to Dolores and the time she spent with her LC friends. It brought back so many memories. May she rest in peace.

I think that was a fabulous collection of photographs and it brought back so many wonderful memories to me of all of the great events we have shared together. I think it was the perfect way to remember her. Thank you so much for doing such a fantastic job with it!

Only just seen this thread. Deeply shocked and saddened by the passing if that lovely lady Dolores, and sorry I missed it until now.

Amazingly evocative set of pix, Wijbe en Willy, and perfectly chosen Leonard music. Brought back so many memories of Dolores, who I met in Krakow and on Hydra, and at some concerts, though I did not know her well. Brought back touching memories of so many of you all too, and of some of those gatherings in your photos, even the ones that happened before I joined the Forum - which seem familar even though I wasn't yet there.

What an amazing bunch of people we are, and what a lot of love we share. Thank you, Leonard, for being who you are and bringing us world-wide fans all together in places where location is not important. Thank you too to Jarkko and Eija for making this connection between us all possible. And thank you to my dear friends Wijbe and Willy for your pix (and your tech knowledge, Wijbe!)

We shall raise a glass ( or a cup of tea) to honour and celebrate the life of one of us, to Dolores, at the Event in Madison this summer.

With love

Goodness, I have just found this. I always enjoyed her smile and presence. Farewell, Dolores

I have only just found this thread. John and I are deeply saddened to hear that Dolores has passed away, but it was so good that Henning and Willy and Wijbe were able to be at her memorial and take all our love and condolences to her family. I have just been watching Wijbe's montage of pictures, and it brought back so many happy-sad memories. Thank you Wijbe. Dolores was such a lovely lady. Even though my German was about as good as her English, we still had many a friendly chat, and I have found a couple of pictures from Hydra 2005. One is on the boat-trip that we took around the island, and the other is the way I best remember Dolores - feeding the cats on Hydra. Thanks to B4real for reminding me how to upload them.
