I was totally impacted by hearing the news of Tena's passing. She was one of the loveliest people ever, so warm and sweet, so incredibly dedicated to reporting information and open to new ideas, with unflagging energy even when it seemed as though her tireless work went unacknowledged, and always working from a base of total love.
I truly felt she was like a beloved sister to me and many others. Her light shone so brightly that I feel it is still shining really, and I can't think of her in the past tense at all.
TO her son and family, I am terribly sorry for your loss. This must feel very hard. Yet Tena made this world a distinctly better place, and is still doing so with the reverberations of her spirit and energy. I feel her holding my hand right now.
God bless.
