My new favourite quote is from Winnie:
“If there ever comes a day when we can’t be together,
just keep me in your heart,
I’ll stay there forever.”
Still can’t believe Robert is really gone… but while I wrestle with this, and I know so many others are doing the same thing, I thought it was time to show off the amazing team who meet every two weeks to eat, drink, and be pancreatic cancer fundraising event-planners in Robert’s memory… and yes, sometimes we are merry.

Kevin Gerrior, Phil Barbour, Christine Delong, Tim Coolen, Linda Coolen, Steve Sampson, Debbie MacKenzie, me, Tanya Hendsbee
We are so appeciative of all the efforts from Robin around the Mary Kay events to raise money for Craig’s Cause Pancreatic Cancer Society, and so far over $1000 was raised by her! (oh, and by the way keep voting for me, there is only one week left: https://www.mkmakeovercontest.com/gallery.jsp?id=201588&lang=en®ion=CA ).
Also, the auction/dance/social (for the same charity) is getting close! Get your tickets from one of us before it’s too late. The date is July5th, and there is a limit on the number of people who can fit in the Pacifico. I am just starting to list some auction items… take a peek here under ‘Events’.
And lastly, I am starting to train more seriously for the Maritime Bike Tour… you can learn more about it here under ‘Events’ too… or join me on facebook for the gritty details… this morning I finally faced Citadel Hill on my bike.. results.. Citadel : 0, Eileen : 7. (ouch ouch ouch) … but a wise woman recently told me that pain is the feeling of weakness leaving your body.. I get this about my legs… but am still not sure what to do with the other pain, so I refer back to Winnie.
