about
www.monicasjoo.org
This site is
dedicated to the treasured memory of Monica
and to her beloved Mother Earth
After Monica died, Toivo
(the only one of her 3 sons to survive her and who lovingly
nurtured her during the last 5 months of her life) and Anna
(close friend of Monica and the family) discussed the
possibility of creating a website to make her extraordinary work
more accessible to a larger public. However, Toivo takes after his
Mum and is a low-tech sort of guy, so Annie (his partner) and
Anna got together and spent many weeks doing overtime researching,
scanning, typing, formatting, making hundreds of links and -
"Oh No!!" - having quite a few mishaps along the way! This
is the result.
It's been hard for us two amateur computer tappers to do justice to
Monica's inspiring work. On top of that we know you had a deep-felt
dislike for computers, dear Monica! Nevertheless we feel you would
approve that your art and writing can now be shared with thousands
of people all over the world! We like to believe you are now one of
the "Great Female Beings Out There", which you used to
talk to us about. And we hope this tribute to you makes you smile
out there.
Blessed Be!

I am saddened to say that our dear friend
Anna Fraser passed away, after a brave struggle with cancer,
in February 2011. She is greatly missed.
