![]() Andrea Juncos, Mona's friend, Mentor
Hello Esther and family. I did hear the news about Mona and I am so very sorry. I care about Mona very much and my thoughts and prayers are with all of you. I am planning to attend the service on the 30th. I will certainly send some thoughts and pictures for the iBook. I have also notified the executive director at Girls Write Now of the news and I will write some kind of blog or piece for a memorial on the GWN site. I know that GWN was important to Mona. She had expressed to me that she wanted to be a mentor there someday. I was in touch w her recently - she told me about her writing class at Hunter. She was so talented and creative and curious and kind. She truly inspired me and I am so glad to have been in her life these last ten years. I am on a train and need to get out now. But I will definitely send you some thoughts and pictures. I am so grateful and touched that you asked me to do that. Again I am so sorry for your loss. I am thinking of all of you. Hello Ester. Thanks for your recent note. GWN is planning to post a memorial for Mona on their site on Monday - with some memories from me and others with some pictures - and it will link to the website you sent me that you created and include info about the memorial service.
