I am writing to you all tonight to let you all know what we have decided to do in memorial to my mother, Verenas, recent passing. My sisters, Krystal, Amber, and I, along with our dad and our husbands met tonight in a beautiful place to discuss just how and what we wanted to do for my mother now that she has passed on. We had a lengthy discussion as to what she would want, who she would want there, where her ashes would be spread, etc..
We decided to have a private service for her, as a family, with all her daughters and grandchildren, and our dad as well, this Saturday night, at sunset, approx 9:01 p.m PST, at her beloved Oregon Coast, where we will set her free to the ocean, where she wanted to be.
We would like to invite all who love her to share in this moment by taking a few moments of silence, burning a candle, or doing whatever you feel would be fitting at that moment, for my mom.
My mother was a very sincere person, so timid in ways, and so bold in others. We feel that having her family together to let her go would be what she would want. You all have been a huge part of her family, so I would never expect to leave you out. If you would like to send flowers or cards, you can send them to my address. A few of all flowers received will go into the ocean with my beautiful mother as we set her free. I am including my personal address to have any chosen sentiments sent to. If you would like the flowers to be included in our service, please have them arrive by Friday July 16th. But please do not feel that you must send a thing, as a moment of silence or a small loving thought or ritual or posting would absolutely be quite enough for this beautiful, humble soul.
Thank you all with all my heart for your loving support, words, and tributes. You all really have no idea just how much it has helped our family through this very painful loss. Please feel free to post any last words, thoughts, etc..

May peace and love be with all of my mother's friends.

Love Always,
♥Marcie♥ aka Katsmeoww

Thank you Marcie for letting us all know!...

Your Mom would have wanted that...the Ocean was a favourite place for her, as she always posted some beautiful pictures of that area..

I will certainly be thinking of her as her soul is set free!..

I will be toasting her with a glass of champagne in her honour!

Thank you, Marcie, for sharing this with us. Sunset on the Oregon Coast ocean...how beautiful and fitting for your Mom. I will certainly be thinking of you on Saturday night, at sunset, approx 9:01 p.m PST, and offering a little prayer for your Mom and your family...God Bless.

Thank you, Marcie for sharing this. She always used to say about Oregon Coast and had invited me to visit there if I ever visit US. God bless her soul.

Marcia, it sounds like you and your family have planned a beautiful memorial for your mother, and our dear friend. I send my prayers to all of you and will be toasting our dear friend Saturday night.

Thanks so much Marcie. My prayers and thoughts will be with you all at that time. A very lovely memorial planned!

I will be thinking of X and all her family come Sunset in Oregon Saturday. A great plan and thanks for letting us know.

Count me in for a toast in her honor! I'm happy to hear all the support here has helped your family. God Bless you all. As I'm reading this Zac Brown Band's "Free" is on. It says..."Free as I'll ever be". That's what your mom will feel when she is resting in her beautiful coast.

I will be there in spirit, Marcie, and I'll send some healing light from the Eastern seacoast to the beautiful Oregon coast. Thank you and your family for the inviting us all to be there in spirit.

Just an idea. What if we took pictures, of our respects, for Miss V, on Saturday, 9:01 PST, and post them in "Your Community - Verenaboo." I believe we, here in Ohio, are three hours later than Oregon, so I am planning on 12:01p. These pictures would be whatever creative way you would wish to express your thoughts at 9:01.

Our thoughts will be with you but unfortunately 9.01pm PST is 5.01am British Summer Time so I won't be able to link up at that moment but I will take some moments of quiet time to remember Verena.

A nice idea, John.

That is a fabulous idea John, thank you. I do realize that there will be many different time zones in on this, so as long as your thoughts are there, I know we will feel the comfort. If any of her friends post a pic for her taken at that time, it would be AMAZING!! Love and peace for now,
♥Marcie♥

My wife Tina and I will be up at 4-45am Saturday ready to post, such a great idea, if we all do this at the same time it would be a great get together for our Girl Bloo . . . .

Are you taking about shooting and posting at the same time or just posting a shot taken at that time?

My thought, Tick, is to compose a picture incorporating the time 9:01 PST and the theme of a memorial for V. You could post it in her special gallery as near 9:01 as possible but I think anytime Sunday should be ok. It will be neat to see what everyone can come up with.

That leaves me out, but I'll still say a prayer or two.

I went out today and set my thoughts free in the solitude of the forest i visited..It was so peaceful there and Verena always commented on how beautiful it was..R.

You set her free on my birthday.......now that's something to me. I hope and pray that things go well for you and the family Marcie. She was such a kind and gentle soul that touched us all. She will be missed dearly but never forgotten. I think the ocean is where she'd want to be also.....she's part of everything now......and that's the way she lived. Much love to you and the family.....the Caedes family will never forget 'our' Verena. :) John

We are still at the coast but my amazing mother is here in spirit. I have some wicked good photos to share with you all when we come home and will share them as soon as I can. With love, Marcie

I can picture a Viking ship set ablaze and sent into the ocean at sunset. Sorry I'm late with this post.
