Di, I will miss your wisdom, your compassion and your way of being able to tune in to a deeper level of conversation. Your energy and love of life and mountains was infectious and inspiring. As a friend to all three of your daughters, I am privileged to have gotten to know you over the last 30 years, as I´ve grown from a young adult to a decidedly middle-aged one. And spent time with you in tramping huts, ski lodges and at many dinner tables. Thank you for your guidance over all these years - always the teacher. May you rest in peace.
