Sad news about Mailartist Marilyn Dammann:
Dear Friends, Chers ami(e)s,
English message followed by French one:
Dear Mail artists,
I have the very painful news to tell all of you:
Marilyn Dammann (also known as Shadow in the network) died on Sunday
afternoon, May 22, 2005.
She had spread a message she'd retired from mail art activities.
The truth behind this message was that she was dying of a general cancer.
Only a few people knew this and kept this a secret like she wished.
She made a last trip with her children and grand children.
Her beautiful house and garden in the UP that I visited twice will become a
community arts gallery in her honor.
I'm very shocked and in deep mourning. The mail art network has lost one
its finest members. I've lost a very good friend.
Let's all remember her in thoughts and art.
Chers ami(e)s du reseau d'art postal,
C'est avec regret et chagrin que je vous annonce le deces de Marilyn
Dammann qui etait aussi connu sous le nom de SHADOW (Ombre).
Elle vient de mourir dimanche le 22 mai dans l'apres-midi.
Elle avait diffuse le message dans le reseau qu'elle prenait sa retraite
de l'art postal.
La verite derriere ce message etait qu'elle luttait contre un cancer
generalise.
Seulement quelques personnes intimes le savaient en ont tenu le secret sur
sa condition sur sa propre demande.
On s'est telephone il y a quelques semaines pour dire nos adieux.
Elle a encore fait un voyage d'une semaine a travers l'Amerique ensemble
avec ses enfants et petits-enfants.
Sa maison et jardin au Michigan vont devenir une gallerie d'art
communautaire en son honneur.
Profondement attriste par sa mort j'invite les artistes du monde entier de
lui rendre hommage en pensees et par la creation artistique. Le reseau
d'art postal vient de perdre un de ses partisans le plus chere. Je viens de
perdre une de mes meilleures amies.
Marilyn, je t'embrasse tres fort la ou tu es, dans l'ombre de l'ombre.
Postal Greetings,
Guido Vermeulen
