Dear Nora,
Do you remember when you wrote this?
Kathleen
Kelly: "Sometimes I wonder about
my life. I lead a small life. Well, not
small, but valuable. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it,
or because I haven't been brave? So
much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn't it
be the other way around? I don't really want an answer. I just want to send
this cosmic question out into the void. So good night, dear void." (You've Got Mail)
dear Nora,
do you know you've changed lives with your writing? With your movies?
With your books?
The
day I heard the lines above it started. You inspired me to write and so, be brave.
If you
only knew how many times your words have made me laugh. How often we've gone to
bed lull to sleep by the music of your beautiful lines in "You've
Got Mail."
If you
only knew how much I admire you. I find such comfort knowing your trials made
you a stronger person.
dear
Nora, it is your example, you kept
writing no matter what, and your words ... what a
writing friend you've been to me without you knowing it.
dear
Nora, I already miss you....
Meryl
Streep: "Nora just looked at every
situation and cocked her head and thought, 'Hummm, how can I make this more fun.?'
"
Tom
Hanks: "At a dinner table on a
film set Nora lifted us all with wisdom and wit, mixed with love for us and
love for life....
