Inga Dorothea Tuvesson

What a beautiful women and I feel so lucky that I was able to meet her. Jean Mysliwiec

Tuv,

We've known you both a long time and during that time, and perhaps especially at your wedding anniversary your love and devotion to each other has been an inspiration to all.

Because of Inga's love of artistic expression and all things water, remembering our beach bonfire picnics at Assateague over the years and in view of the strength you both have exhibited throughout your lives, we'd like to share a poem by Henry VanDyke with you in Inga's honor. We think the words and the images it evokes are quite inspirational and a tribute to Inga:

GONE FROM MY SIGHT

I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side, spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.

Then someone at my side says, "There, she is gone."

Gone where?

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast, hull and spar as she was when she left my side. And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port.

Her diminished size is in me - not in her.

And, just at the moment when someone says, "There, she is gone," there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!"

And that is dying...

Rest in perpetual light and peace, Inga. We love you. We miss you.

Nita,

In reading about your mother, the love, passion and caring for others has been embodied by you.

Please know we are here for you!
Warmest thoughts,
Sabret
