From Mother Eve

2005-01-22

Dear friends and family,

My heart goes out in deepest sympathy for the mother of Pete, and all related. Also to my dear friend, Sue! We had lovely times together.

There are no words that can really say what I want to express. I lost my son at the age of 25 in France by an accident. Later, I knew Pete very shortly. A Mother survives these things but can never really heal. My heart goes out to Maria, for the only son she had, and I hope that others will understand her pain. I have. Judge not that ye be not judged. Dont't try to be God (sic). God Loves you!

A mother,

Mother Eve

(Mother Eve was the first wife of The Family International's founder, the late David Brandt Berg.)
