It was a bitter sweet farewell today, as we said Da vop em nie to our beloved Mary Thomas. I was sixteen years old the first time I meet her & from that moment on she continued to be a part of my life. She watched me grow and I watched her and learned from her example. Her example as an Oodtham Woman and as a tribal leader. I mourn with my community at the lose of our graceful leader. And as I do I am thankful. Thankful to have been a part of her life. Thankful to have had her in mine. And thankful that in our language, there is no word for good bye.
