My Memories Memories, so hard to pick just one and almost impossible when I think if Min...I cherish every day, no, every moment that I had the opportunity to know and laugh with Min. She was a dear friend whose laughter and jokes were so contagious that everywhere she went her funny wit and spirit attracted others to her like a magnet. She was the most inspirational, upbeat, positive person I have ever met...and it never failed, when I needed that, I could count on Min to be there!!! Min had the kindest; loving heart and always gave that to everyone she met without hesitation…I expect her to call and now miss the long chats we use to have…I know Min is the brightest angel up in heaven….and is looking down on us with that beautiful , bright smile.... Min, I will miss you forever and you will never be forgotten in my heart…

My Memories Like many of you I have many "videos" that run through my mind on our dear Mindis Maximus, The Blond Bombshell, Da' Bomb! I can visualize her (and hear her) singing karoake especially with our own Happy Cowboy (Tom). Times at horse camp with Min and Tom serenading us. Min leading Sunny the horse in the middle of the camp as she was showing him the beautiful moon. Fast rides through the hills of Pt Reyes. Singing in Tiberon. Her cute little bandanas and vests. Her straw hat that could never hide her BIG smile. Oh...that smile....WOW.....10,000 volts! Her elegance and determination in battling life's challenges especially this terrible disease. Wig parties! Sleeping in the camper. New Year's Eve party with her wonderful pink getup. Our first Monte Shone ride....how could I forget our favorite couple...she was so proud of her handsome Happy Cowboy by her side. Listening to Min on the phone. Her joys. Her challenges. And how much she loved us all. I promised Min that whenever I gallop my horse up the hills, I wi

My Memories I am truly sorry for your loss of Mindis. I never had the opportunity to meet her in person but I enjoyed the phone conversations that I did have with her. Her hopscotching from topic to topic always tickled me. It seemed that when I gathered enough information to respond intelligently to one subject she was already two more down the road on me. I came away from these chats convinced that this gal has got some real game. It sounds like your pal Mindis will leave behind her some very large and sad breaches in the lives of those who had surrounded her. I regret that she has lost her gallant fight. I know neither her friends nor her family, but there is a commonality none the less when someone shows the courage to lace up her boxing gloves good and tight to give it her best no matter what. My condolences to her family and friends.

My Memories When I last saw Mindy on a Saturday she was very weak and I held her hand. I said" Mindis I love you, I really do." She stared at me and then looked around the room, looked at her self in bed and smiled. She said with a wry smile. "You must or you wouldn't be here."

My Memories Mindis made me laugh. Not normal laughter but deep belly laughs. For that, I shall think of her every day and cherish the moments I spent with her.

My Memories Mindis has become synonymous with the word "sunny" to me. Always full of light and energy and warmth. She made me proud to be a blonde with her wry sense of humor.....noone can deliver a deliver a punchline with more pizazz! God bless you my dear. The earth is a bit dimmer without you but heaven is all aglow!

My Memories Although I only knew Mindis for a few short years, and I could probably count on one hand my experiences with her, she will always hold a special place in my heart. It is not very often that you meet someone who shines as bright as Mindis. I cherish every memory I have of her.

My Memories It is a sad heart that I write this...first for the loss of a such a wonderfully happy and uplifting friend, and for my inability to see everyone at Mindus Maximus' service. I think I speak for all of Min's friends when I say she had an incredibly warm infectious smile and personality that instantly put everyone at ease and encouraged everyone to do some the craziest things we've ever done! Thank you for being my friend, my karaoke buddy and an inspiration!!!! You will be missed, but always in our hearts! Love, Christian

My Memories My beautiful friend -- even more beautiful within than without. The memories -- where I you start? Our times with the horses -- whether we were riding, clearing manure, fixing fences, clearing trails, it was always fun. If there were chores to be done, Mindis was there. She rode beautifully - she made up songs to sing to my horses -- "Sonny's a good ole boy, a good ole boy," etc., etc. I will never hear music without thinking of Mindis. I never got to go fishing with her - Dang! How she loved her friends - and there were so many. Will I ever really accept that she's gone? I don't think so. It is just totally unacceptable.

My Memories Just this year in March, I was fortunate enough to get to spend some time with Min in Oregon. We drove her motor home to beach and laughed until we had tears in our eyes more than once. Mindis was one of the strongest women I have ever met and she will be missed.

My Memories We met playing basketball at the Mt Tam Racquet club.I guarded her that evening, and when, by chance, we touched during the game, the electricity was incredibly memorable for both of us.I think we both knew at that momment that our destiny was to become bound together as lovers and friends.Truly it was a love at first sight story. As time passed,day after day we spent hours just talking and joking about anything and everything as our sense of humor seemed cut from the same mold.We loved travel, people, music and though we were both strong and independent people, often disagreeing about mostly life's little things, we came to realize that we never could be apart, not while in this world. We pleged to spend our life together, help each other be better people than we were alone, and truly enjoyed the spontenaity that seemed to come so naturally during our short eight years together. We were married in our hearts. In the end, I learned much from you and I will never be the same again without you. Yet, you made me promise that
