"I was told by one of the jurors that one of the reasons they wanted to sentence me to death was to make an example of a woman."

Peter & I chose to situate the Sunny Healing Center here in this beautiful location. A newcomer may at first see only a barren, windswept landscape. But, put your hand on the earth here, and you can feel the life pulsing through it. sunnycenter.org/2023/05/05/l…

Thank you all for your support and kind messages.
This is a message to all our family and friends. The time has come to say farewell to our dear Peter, who is in the process of transitioning from this body and this plane. Peter has a special request.
We thank you for continuing to be a part of our lives, whether near or far. After all, there is no such thing as virtual love. We may not be able to gather physically, but the love goes on and on and on. Love has no borders.
