Rest In Peace Heather Bare
I unfortunately wasn’t able to post about this sad news yesterday when Laughing Wolf updated me by e-mail.
One of the several - meaning rather few, in the wider scheme of things - bloggers I have met is person was Heather Bare, known to the world as Momma Bear. Despite her living mere towns away (probably a mere 10 minutes, since we moved), we met at the first New England Blogger Mini Bash in New Hampshire in 2004. I gather this was not long before she turned up sick. I treasure having had that chance to meet her, and her late husband, despite not having taken her up on a standing offer to have me visit and shoot with her, made when I was a new blogger in 2003.
While long expectation has softened the blow, I remain saddened by the news of her passing.
There are tributes by The Gray Monk, Laughing Wolf, and Kathy Kinsley. Laughing Wolf has added links to numerous other blog tributes.
Jay,
*My* offer to take you shooting still stands.
Just wanted to offer it. Seemed kinda fitting, especially given the tribute that Jeff at Alphecca left for MommaBear.
