A memorial for Duchess Kolfinna kottr, KSCA, OP, was held on Saturday, Oct 10, 2009,
on the Main Battlefield at Great Western War.  Friends gathered from far corners of the
Known World to say good-bye to a beloved Duchess and cherished friend.  Her mother's
words, delivered in sign language, floated over the aching silence of the crowd, and
offered us comfort ... "She is not gone.  She is just not here."

And we will see her every day, in the faces of those who loved her.
