Not sure what to say?

Not sure which of Ama´s many friends wrote this, but it is beautiful. I am blessed to have been her cousin, to have lived near her for the last 20+ years of her too-short life, and for my son to have known her. Dance on! Ich liebe dich, Weimar

I went through therapy with Ama for several years back when I lived in Santa Cruz, she was such a beautiful person and I am so saddened to of happened across this obituary by chance. She helped me in so many ways and I hope she is at peace. Sending light to her family.

I just found out about Ama's passing through a search because I wanted to reach out to her and thank her for making a big impact on me when I was an intern for her back in 2017. I'm deeply saddened by this news. I remember she gave me this book called "The Courage to Heal" and I didn't know it at the time, but present day the book has meant so much to me in my own healing journey. Ama saw the potential in me and I won't ever forget her.

I just found out about Ama's passing. I just want to wish Helga a very Happy Mother's Day, happy, not because Ama is not here but because Ama was such an incredible gift. In gratitude I honor the mother who brought forth the beautiful, nurturing, kind, loving, healing, intelligent and so I've heard, adventurous spirit in Ama.

She helped me a great deal. Her sympathy for my pain was healing. She was wise and loving. Her spirit still stands for love and joy in my heart.

Some years ago, when Ama was in Intern, I had the pleasure to work with her. We challenged one another in all the best ways possible....and, we laughed. That was my favorite part. I was fortunate to run into her a year or so ago, when I was visiting Santa Cruz, and had the opportunity to catch up. I’ll miss you, Ama. Much love to her husband, other family, and friends.
