Not sure what to say?

Dear McBrier Family,

Pinky was a radiant presence who made us feel at home in the Privada de Baeza community in San Miguel. She was always laughing and full of joy, and she reached out to us in so many ways that gave us a true sense of home. San Miguel will not be the same without Pinky, nor will the world.

Our hearts are with you at this time of loss. And please let us know if we can join you for the celebration of Pinky's life in San Miguel.

Warmest...

Mary, I just heard today. I am so saddened. I was in France celebrating my son's wedding. How can this be? I am still in shock. I thank you for taking me into inlingua in 1997 after my own tragedy. I walked on fire thanks to you. You shouldn't be gone, but you would have given me a reason why. As always. You always had an answer. You know I would have been with you and Ric, Parker and Walter on Monday for the celebration of you but I was with Maeve in Paris. Oblivious. I'll meet you again...

Dear McBrier Family,
Very saddened by the news. I last briefly saw Pinky in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, when she attended her niece's high school graduation. However, I hold many fond memories from my college days when we frequented your home in Salt Lake City in the 80's. My heartfelt condolences to you all - for the loss of such a fine person.

Dear McBrier Familia,
Como Estas? Even though we did never done meet Pinky, we read her obit and were amazed at the outpouring of emotion and information. We only hope that our family writes such a moving and detailed tribute to our illustrious lives. You have made Pinky's legacy and inspiration to do well and serve others. May this serve to promote her love of children.

RIP

Dear McBrier family, We are so sorry to hear of Pinky's passing. We did not know her for a long time, but we came to admire, respect and love her. She was such a fun and friendly person. I saw her last in May for Matias' birthday party in the park. You could see how much she loved those young kids. I just can not believe that she is gone.
Our hearts go out to you.
Gissa and Dick Clayton

Ric - I am very sorry to learn of your wife's death. I send my condolences and best wishes at this challenging time. - Scott Hirschi

To cousin Ric and all of the Mcbriers, My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you deal with this loss. What can I say except that my heart is saddened by the passing of one who was loved so much by so many.

Pinky and I attended the same school, Colegio Americano de Guayaquil Ecuador. We had so many adventurous together - we were wild but good girls with such zest for life... We wanted to change the world... WITH DEEPEST SYMPATHY - “Those who gave our lives beauty live forever in our hearts.”

Pinky will always be with you, with us – in the lessons she gave, the life she shared, and the love she showed.
May all our beautiful memories of her
comfort us and bring us peace. Idelis...
