I am so sad to know that my new friend Dana passed! I will miss her determination and her lovely smile and her firm intention of getting off the cruel streets of San Francisco. She and I froze that night due to misinformation. The authorities need to be clearly informed as to what is required to enter a city shelter, be it navigational, 311, normal (whatever normal city shelters are - that's an oxymoron), or emergency winter shelters. Either way, there are processes. My heart is truly broken that Dana, a truly gentle, smart as a whip, comedic, caring soul is no longer with us. Sadly, many of our homeless friends and family pass from living in such dire and chronic circumstances. I send out love and hugs to her biological family as well as her friends and family here. She touched my heart and we enjoyed an amazing adventure that night - one I will not ever forget. The entire time she worried about her boyfriend and told me they were friends to a couple since young. Awww, he was a tremendous priority in her life and she told me she called him Husband and would like to marry him one day. I listened to the dreams of a beautiful woman all night long as we smiled and laughed together. I love you, Dana. Always. Love, Lisa W
