" ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Charlotte Paukner Date: Wed, Mar 30, 2016 at 1:50 PM Subject: Aw: Anneliese Hello thinking of our extended American family without Anneliese in it ... I feel quite a loss. She was special. I remember her as a wonderful listener with a great sense of fun and humor. Intelligent, down to earth, nothing squeamish about her. She made others feel at ease with themselves. Perhaps because she was at ease with herself - a very rare quality in a person. With her, one didn't need to pretend. It is hard to find a person so genuine! I know she suffered from memory loss - she didn't remember me last time I was there - but, when I saw her last, her character was unchanged. Outwardly she lived a simple life - but what an extraordinary person! I remember that her presence - her acceptance - always made me slow down, exhale, relaxe, (re)consider. Her presence made me "be" instead of "do". [Although, I am sure, as a mother she could make you "do" ;) ] Being with her provided a space in which people could accept and love themselves. I don't know if - as a close family member - one could see or feel that. But it was my experience of being with her and I know that my mother and Christian felt similarly. Good bye, Anneliese! Knowing you was a real privileg and honor! Charlotte "
