We remember our dear friend Noemie Merick who passed away July 24, 2009. She was such an important member of our yoga family. For so many years she was part of the retreat and gave scholarships to the people who had less money. She helped some of my best students, and was with me during some of my most cherished retreats. She was generous beyond means. Que amiga! We will miss her and keep her in our prayers and meditations as her spirit continues on its journey.

Noemie, you will be missed.

Cattleya orchid, just rebloomed and now making more flowers. Growing better now in Mexico than it did in New Orleans!
