Please accept my heartfelt sympathy and condolences on the loss of Celine. I knew her as a warm and wonderful friend and an exceptionally talented and inspiring artist. My last email from Celine was in July and she wrote about her need to try to find the energy to paint more often. Never a word of complaint about her physical condition and the emotional hurdles she was facing. She was and will remain forever an incredible inspiration for how to live life to the fullest against whatever odds you face.
