Doug and Yael Powell are an integral part of our community. They are a bright and pure light which has illumined and warmed many of us through the years. No, let me reword that: they have affected all of us, all the time, whether we were aware of their goodness or not. I first met them when they came to my gallery of local artists asking if they could sell their spiritually-oriented books there. Due to Yael’s physical limitations, she spent many hours a day in bed, meditating and writing. The words which flowed from her were honest and enchanting. The first book I read of hers was called, Magic Cat Explains Creation. Yael’s deep connection with all things was obvious in this delightful book based on her communications with her cat. She has the same deep link with plants, people, everything and everyone. I loved her the first moment I met her. She will be missed by all who have known her. But she is not leaving a void, because she’s not going anywhere. Love lives on and on.
“In the illusion of death, mortals wake to the knowledge of two facts: (1) that they are not dead; (2) that they have but passed the portals of a new belief.” Mary Baker Eddy
