Your friends in the South Oaks want to thank you for all you have done over many years to make our corner of Mother Earth into a place of beauty and serenity Thank you. When you came, the courtyard was a rubble-strewn wasteland. You and many helping hands transformed it, and you welcomed us into your garden. As long as we shall live in the South Oaks, that will be remembered as Dagmar's garden. And perchance, out of the corner of our eye, we might spy you sitting on your little stool. Farewell Dear Friend, in cherry blossom time.
