Peace for Heidi

Heidi died Sunday evening at home.

Thank you to everyone who has provided food and comfort for our family during Heidi’s time in hospice care. This has been truly helpful, and we are grateful. We have the support we need at this moment, and we will need some space to process and plan for what’s next.

In a couple of weeks we will get together to talk about Heidi and reflect on the contribution she has made to all of our lives. The funeral will be on Tuesday, October 8 at 4:00 PM at Bethlehem Lutheran Church Twin Cities, Minneapolis Campus (4100 Lyndale Ave S). I’ll post the full obituary with more information soon.

In the meantime, I encourage you to look back at this blog that Heidi was so generous to share with us. For Heidi, this space was an important connection to our community as she lived the last few years of her life with cancer. She opened herself up in such a vulnerable and meaningful and beautiful way, with the hope that it could improve other people’s lives. I know for sure that she was successful.
