Dear Sandie,
It's been a good many years since we went after it on this board and Abundance; it's been so long I forgot what all the fighting was about. But even though there were harsh things typed, I think you knew I was never your enemy. I also think you know I enjoyed your energy and passion. You are unforgettable. Since Tina told me the news yesterday, I can't seem to stop thinking about you. I mean, I can't fucking believe it.
Oh man, you were a purple volcano. A wisp of a syllable could ignite you and then, watch out, step back, get out of the way because you were pretty damn fearless and you'd blow up everything in your path. Nothing got past you. As quickly as that fire was lit, empathy and compassion put it out and all that was left was a loving, turbulent heart. You understood pain and it was obvious you wanted to help others' relieve theirs.
I never told you this, but I read your poetry and many of your writings. You were a damn good writer, Sandie. I mean really good, agent-good. Publishing good. I hope you saved your work, it's good stuff. So there you go, the feeling is mutual when it comes to art: I was a fan, too.
Light up the moon with your gypsy dress billowing in the Gothic sky you make to play in as you await your new adventure. I will remember you.
Mindy (aka Lisabeth)
I will be having a memorial service for Sandie on Saturday, August 27th. It will be held in my home in Grand Prairie, TX. For those of you who belong to Facebook, I have set up an event page for it.

I just tried it and it worked for me - but that may be because I set up the event. People on Facebook can also get to the event page by searching on "Memorial Service for Sandie Weber-Zitkus".It says page not found Wayne![]()
