One year ago.

This year has past so fast. Heidi is missed and thought about so many times. We all love Heidi and think so fondly of her. - Carl

Heidi is put to rest today.

As this is being written, Heidi is being carried by fishing vessel, out to sea off Westport in Washington State. She will be at rest, and in peace. Here are a few words written by my younger brother Berthold Brecht "Bert"

What a beautiful ocean. Blue, vibrant and unrestricted at the surface. Underneath is a whole different world. A world more full of life than the one we know so well. Endless life, mysterious beauty and with more adventures than could ever be explored. This is where the seed of life on earth began and here shall be the place where a most treasured life will come to rest. What a perfect place for your adventures, love and inspiration to continue when just a short time ago you were with us. Of course you will never be gone. You are a part of us and there are so many wonderful experiences that we shared together. You will be thought of every day and our love for you will continue to grow. We will visit you when we are at the shore and touch you when we place our hand on the water.
You have done so much for so many. You mean so much to us all. We love you!
Bert Brecht

I'm sorry I did not know Heidi beyond our childhood days. I am thankful and very moved to learn more of her life and deeply saddened to learn of her death. I wish to offer my heartfelt condolences to her family.
