On October 1st, our dear friend Candy Saunders succumbed to cancer. A therapist, social worker and professor, she helped thousands of people. “Throw a stone in the pond, you’ll never know where the ripples go,” is certainly true of Candy, who taught mental health professionals how to treat trauma. “Candy was luminous and so radiantly there,” said a mutual friend. We were blessed to be Candy’s neighbor for over 35 years. I hope my portrait of her captures her irresistible smile. You are deeply missed by so many, dear friend.
