From the roaring morning welcome to the afternoon crunching of dailey popcorn to the scary shawdows from the trees blowing in the nights wind with the trickle sound from the dinosaur fooprint fountain and shimmer lights painting the walls from the surface reflection from all--tile pool and who knows who may be under the house in he waterways flowing down to the shores will forever carry the spirit of one heck of a spirit of the deeply missed Mrs. G. And here for you now again...

With thee roar of the morning and afternoon popcorn crunching and shadows of the trees blowing in the nighs' wind,the sounds of the owls and shimmerlights reflection on the all tile Pool all over the walls,and dinosaur footprint fountain and who knows may be under the house where waterways flow all the way to the shores,the Peak of Encelia will forever carry the spirit of one of my favorite energetic people who always adored true naural creaivity mixed with quality and purpose..Miss you deeply and here for you still.

Audrey Stone Geisel's death represents the last link to Dr. Seuss. Besides being his partner, I respected their passionate union and the fact that she fiercely guarded his legacy. To say that i grew up with Dr Seuss would be a gross understatement. The Cat in the Hat was the first book that i read independently. I was 2, and my mom called my dad to come home from work to witness this amazing feat. He quickly figured out that I had memorized it. Such is the power of those words. In turn, I raised my children on Dr. Seuss and cherish our collection of books as well as my stuffed Lorax. Audrey Geisel simply made the world a better place, and she will be greatly missed. I wish to extend my deepest condolences as well as my profound gratitude for sharing her with the world.

Dear Leagrey,
I wanted to express my sympathy to you and your sister on your mom's passing. I very much appreciated your mom's spirit and her community contributions to San Diego.
Cordially, Veronica Platt Longstreth
P.S. Mission Hills misses you and Thidwicks very much. You would be so proud of the neighborhood children, now adults, who you inspired to read.

I wrote Ms. Audrey a letter years ago. I don't know if she ever got it, but I wanted her to know her work to continue the legacy of Dr. Seuss was beyond appreciated by those of us who are Seuss fanatics. May this wonderful woman rest in peace!
