Our TQS family mourns the loss of Nanabear of Buena Vista, Colorado. Leslie passed-on yesterday after a most valiant battle with cancer. Leslie was an ardent supporter of The Quilt Show and has graced our audience with her presence during tapings here in La Veta. Leslie loved animals, loved quilting and loved life and her smile was a beacon of hope and compassion everytime I saw her. Although I know there are many, many people out there who have shown courage and dignity in the face of a terminal illness, but I don't know that I have had the pleasure of knowing one such as NANABEAR and MY life is richer for knowing her!!!! Please keep her family in your thoughts and prayers during this time. Justin
